It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

Here in Melbourne, Australia, they use them like motorcycles everywhere.
Every single food panda, or other delivery rider is on an e bike with throttle, and they never peddle.
They ride at full speed, on the roads, like motorcycles.
It's totally doable. Thousands are doing it every day here.
Electric vehicles with a throttle (what the law is targeting) can absolutely be used as motorcycles. Hence why CA feels motorcycle-like vehicles need to be reclassified. What the law is targeting are functionally motorcycles/mopeds with pedals attached.
If your legs are the primary driver then you do not have the type of vehicle the law is targeting.
Perhaps with your preferred brand(s) of ebikes. This law is targeting Super73 and similar brands that advertise and promote post-sale "off-road" or "unlimited" modifications. These modified bikes have been a nuisance on public trails for a few years now.
