micromobility is seen as a potential solution to moving people more efficiently around cities"

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.

At 35mph, registration and insurance aren't bad ideas.
Safety gear isn't a bad idea, but registration and insurance don't make sense to me - if I'm on a 100lb vehicle on a road where everyone else is in a 4000lb vehicle it doesn't make sense why I would need liability coverage. And I'm not damaging the roads the way cars/trucks do so it doesn't make any sense to me to pay anything to the state/country for registration.
I think the problem is that you're looking for an e-bike with the specs of a motorcycle/vespa/moped, and those require a licence, registration, and insurance.
I remember seeing similar questions on e-scooter subreddits, where people would be asking about e-scooters to go 65mph with over 5000W of power, not realizing that most places restrict them to 500w or less, and a max speed of 15mph. LOL
I get that laws haven't really caught up to all micromobility options, but this is something to keep in mind.
