NO SHIT! And stop making e-bikes so overly complicated that they basically become motorcycles with less power.
The e-scooter industry had the same issues. They went from perfectly fine 250w motors, to 500w, to 5000w+. Like, wtf are you doing? These things are barely legal in most places, and you want to kill the industry before it even takes off!

  Reputable bike brands still make the same ebikes they started building years ago. They're reliable, the brand batteries last decades and the bikes can be repaired by normal bike shops.
  
  I've been seeing more with integrated batteries,multiple extra parts to maintain (suspension on everything!), some use cargo racks that aren't even designed to fit panniers, handlebars that you can't mount standard accessories on, mandatory (?) app pairing, etc.
  Keeping them simple and repairable (AT HOME) should be a priority.
  
  Aww, but where's the money in that?
  
  If you don't buy your ebike from a startup there's a decent chance it's from a reputable bike manufacturer
