My view is that this technology is a game-changer in transport, and will revolutionise commuting and traffic infrastructure, especially in Australia, where bicycle-specific infrastructure is coming from a relatively low base. This has to be a good thing for all of us treadlers, so I say "Bring it on!"

Where I live I do not think electric bikes will be a game changer.  Only part of the year is it reliable for commuting.

E-bike sales are booming in Europe and it's not because of hoons or the cancelled-licence drunks, but people often new to cycling, getting a bit older, facing a more hilly/longer distance commute, or just a bit less confident/competitive.
