Do you REALLY want them back?

"It's" is a valid contraction of "it has".

Edit: glossed over the other "it's"... doh.

I think there's a reasonable argument that statement applies to both of them, in this case.

Yup, we've had this discussion many times.

That said, generation is a bit of an issue (build more renewables) and distribution was always fine as long as you charge overnight, not at peak times.

It also avoids the perception of it being their own fault for being too lazy / too incompetent / too disabled.

Not for the people they're now sharing a bike lane with, and not for the driver in bad weather or if they get crashed into.

NZ Post has somewhat similar Paxsters, but they have full roadgoing registrations and license plates. I think they might have their own categorisation or exemption to allow them to legally be driven on footpaths like posties on motorbikes. Not used for parcel service, only letter mail

I don't think there's necessarily anything corporate-exclusive about these; you could probably commission your own if you wanted.

I don't really see how this doesn't count as a motor vehicle, though. Be interesting to see what the 'assist' speed and power limits are.

Underfloor cooling is really rare (basically never used) because if you cool the floor to near/below the dew point, you'll get water condensing on it.

Normally you want that water condensing somewhere with a good drain, so you get dehumidification too.
