MODERATORS
If it's got a motor, electric or otherwise, it belongs on the road with other motor vehicles.
Edit: And not in the bicycle lane...
Imo at least a class 1 should be an exception, it's required to be pedaled for any assist and is barred from providing assist past 20mph or operating via a throttle. There are also power limits that make them pretty weak.
The class system is designed for these arguments. I'm fine with class 2 in lanes and paths, but now we can discuss ebikes and where they belong without confusion. And regulators for parks, towns, etc can make it very clear in their signage.
