Ebikes + renewable energy is more efficient even than a human riding a traditional bike! The energy has to come from somewhere.

That furphy’s been disapproved so many times it’s weird it keeps getting brought up. It’s literaly not the case, you can expend the energy to cycle the 5km to work and don’t need to eat extra to fuel it. You’re not racing the TdF.
As an asdie, I have an ebike and an escooter (better again IMO in cities then an ebike and less resource and maintence intensive) and a I use the escooter and non ebike by far the most
I’d agree escooters are more efficient. The only disadvantage is that you can at least get a little bit of exercise for all that time you’re riding the ebike.
