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.

Sweden has 250W tops for bikes at 25km/h.
Moped class 2 are the ones who can ride in the bike path with up to 1000W and 25km/h for cutoff. These do require insurance (~€6/mo) , but are mostly for delivery services where 250W just isn’t enough. These also require a helmet.
So far this system has worked pretty well with no insane speeders in the news yet. With anecdotal evidence it’s usually the insane wattage that really encourages bad behaviour.
