Well OP is saying that legal ebikes will be insufficiently powerful for what they need. They don’t have a car, so assuming they don’t want one they could look at a moped, a motorbike, scooter bikes, all of which will provide more power and be street legal.
I’m in Victoria, where we’re already limited to 250w and have been the entire time, so I’m seeing a lot of arguments against bike regulations fall flat on their face.

They really didn’t come across as condescending at all IMO. You’re complaiing about legal e-bikes not doing specific tasks you want them to, it’s entirely reasonable to suggest that your expectations may be misaimed.

considering on average most people will have their data breached from “secure” databases designed to “protect” their customer logins over their own actions, I’m sure putting in heavy handed monitoring that records everything will make our citizens ever so much safer and not make a giant honeypot for bad faith actors to leverage
