Ebike that charge using commonly found usbc cable is pretty awesome though, no more proprietary bs.

Yeah, it's awesome. You already have multiple chargers. They are small and portable - taking one of those big Bosch chargers with you is nothing you do normally. A small USB-C charger? Sure! Something broken? You already have more USB-C cables and chargers lying around, no need for an expensive proprietary replacement. Want to charge at work? Take a cheap adapter. Stranded on a tour? Just roll into a café and someone there will have a charger. It's an awesome idea :)
