I agree with most of that. I don’t really like the Watt limits as a 100lb person/child would accelerate faster and potentially more dangerously than a 180lb person. I think a acceleration curve would be better and would potentially be better for extremely overweight individuals who want to work on getting in shape without getting stuck somewhere.

It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

As a guy with a family who make a lot of use of class 1 e-bikes, this sounds good to me!
