If you're smart enough to read the classifications, they are pretty clear what is considered moped vs ebike.
That seems to be a personal problem, doesn't apply to general ebike riding population.
As usual. You generally don't have explanations.
I know what a moped is I have known what a moped is for a while. It is a throttled vehicle that also has pedals and has been that since 1952 when the term was coined (and technically before that). It was originally a bicycle with a gasoline powered motor at the front the new ones are electric. I don't know what your issue is? Why you have such a odd definition of mopeds that excludes electric stuff? I understand fully you love the mopeds and that is fine. Like I said my opposition is not towards the e-mopeds it is just miscategorizing them. If someone wants to ride an e-moped anywhere throttled vehicles are allowed that is fine. You can still enjoy your stuff that is not my issue.
