So is this like having a freewheel in your crank or is there more to it?
EDIT: Their promo video doesn't really explain much of anything. Shows there's a little play between the crank and sprocket but that's about it.
Ebikes, bicycles, scooters, skateboards, longboards, eboards, motorcycles, skates, unicycles, heelies, or an office chair: Whatever floats your goat, this is all things micromobility!
"Transportation using lightweight vehicles such as bicycles or scooters, especially electric ones that may be borrowed as part of a self-service rental program in which people rent vehicles for short-term use within a town or city.
micromobility is seen as a potential solution to moving people more efficiently around cities"

From the videos I've found, it helps your suspension by reducing pedal kickback (by adding slack between the crank and the sprocket like you mentioned).
Now if you're an absolute MTB dummy like me, you may also not know how or why kickback happens, so here's an article I found
Never owned a full suspension bike myself, only bikes with front shocks, and my trail riding has been very mild (not downhill stuff, only nature trails that were on my route as part of a bigger trip) so I've never put much thought into it. I guess it helps a little if you're doing downhill type stuff, and is completely useless if you're riding on roads like I tend to.
