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.

It should just be a speed limit.
Just because someone is fit enough to properly themselves over 20 mph without a motor doesn't make it any safer when they crash.
Pedestrian area. Mobility scooters and pedestrians. No bikes. 5 mph
Bridal/cycle path. Weight limit on vehicles to avoid damage to paths. 15 mph limit.
Faster than 15 mph, on the road. Get a licence.
Slower than 10 mph, not allowed on the road. No cyclists or mobility scooters crawling up hills at walking pace blocking traffic.
This obviously requires roads to not be the only infrastructure built to get anywhere conveniently. But we really do need to separate commuting traffic into 2 parts and then have pedestrian areas at destinations.
