I think you just have a very polarised view of cycling that excludes e-bikes. A more open-minded view is that they create even more cycling opportunities. As long as we are talking about pedal assist e-bikes rather than throttle operated electric "mopeds".
Now personally I prefer to ride normal pedal bikes, but I can see an e-bike in my future at some point and not necessarily health related. More "fun" related.
