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.

Sure, I understand. It's still much cheaper than a car in the long run.
And prices will eventually drop with more competition and there's not a really functional second hand market for these things since they are too new.
But yeah it really was just an FYI in case at some point you realize "I can't do this by foot alone" you know there's a variety of options that's not a clunky "bakfiets".
