Might help for heavy goods and the use case for people with disabilities but it's a lot of extra power for the average bike that doesn't add anything if capped at 15.6mph.
Would prefer to see a discussion around a class system like the US, for speed/power. e.g.
Class 1 - 25kph/15.6mph 250w - rental type bikes, Lime, Forest, etc.
Class 2 - 32kph/20mph 250w - normal personal bikes
Class 3 - 25kph/15.6mph 500w - cargo
