With the e-bikes i'ive had a snapped chain and snapped a pedal off. Both times i was able to get home on electric-alone. I had electric failure when a hall sensor failed on my first one, but i had low enough gearing to get home (With a child on the back).
Manual bikes have always been expendable. Chuck 'em in a bush, get a bus/taxi.
