My primary mode of transportation is a bike and IMO not all e-bikes are real bikes.

Pedal-assist sure but if there is a throttle (and pedaling is optional) then I consider it a moped.

Not that I’m opposed to mopeds…

That's true. We don't have throttle-controlled bikes here because they are legally considered mofas, but mofas with pedals basically don't exist here so there's no overlap.
