It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

I don't really care about how many minutes or kilometers I've traveled. I care more about the amount of exercise. I think I missed that part of the article.

It's just clickbait and a lie, when comparing to the statements in the sources they link.

Both sources are their own news, with both saying it's less exercise on an e-bike. But by the concept of an e-bike, there is the possibility to ride more/longer/farther, which can lead - depending on the extra range - to more exercise, than a bike without motor.
