E-bikes are excellent urban mobility devices. It turns out they’re also really good for catching e-bike riding crooks up to no good. This is exactly what cops are doing.
“If you want to use rule-breaking as reason to ban a class of vehicle, you have to apply it to all vehicles”.
But you don’t have to. And you wouldn’t treat everything the same since they aren’t the same. It’s like saying when designing traffic routes, you have to treat every class of vehicle the same. Of course you wouldn’t, you’d consider prevalence, design goals, feasibility, need, all kinds of things.

Simplifying too much is a bad thing.
But the comment I answered at the beginning of this chain did.
They’re applying it to e-bikes. They said nothing about being an universal policy that affects any other vehicles the exact same way.
