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.

Is that legal? Here in NM it is illegal to have anyone on a bike without there being a specific seat for them.
And something i never see any of these articles address is transporting dogs.
This is how I sometimes take my dog on my bike for short trips:
But the best way to transport dogs is using a trailer. That tub takes the place of the rear seat; so to transport kids and the dog at the same time I'd need a trailer.
I think the bamboo board could be considered a seat. Plus the additional hand rails and foot rests in the back. I think that law was meant to prevent people from sitting on handlebars or riding on pegs.
And dogs of any substantial size are difficult to get on bikes without training. You could easily fit a Chihuahua or Yorkie on there, but a lab or retriever would be tough and need to be taught to not jump down mid ride.
What about the back of the bike isn't "a specific seat" to you? It has foot rests, and typically on bikes of that type you can add retention stuff for smaller kids.
How is that not a "specific seat"? It's literally an optional passenger seat.
There are plenty of dog accessories for e-bikes but you're probably not going for a ride with your overweight German shepherd onboard.
