You seem to know absolutely nothing about eBikes. Yes, the point is being able to go faster while simultaneously allowing the rider to chose how much they want to work at it. There are various settings on most eBikes that dial in how much effort is needed to go at any particular speed. The special attachment that does this is the control pad on the handlebars. The motor only provides a portion of the work from none to all depending on the type of motor and the selected setting.
