In 25 years people will still be collecting and riding their old ICE bikes -- the old electric versions will probably be inoperable due to software lockouts that prevent repair and various other proprietary tomfoolery. Even as a tech enthusiast, I'm loathe to accept that new stuff is superior in usability, let alone utility.
I've driven manual car transmissions my whole life, and I can't stand automatics. I hate the "hill-holder" behavior and the fact the car just lunges forward on its own when I don't push the accelerator. Automatics behave this way because of how torque converters work. Now that electric cars are becoming common, by default they mimic the behavior of torque converters because that's what most people expect. We can program electric cars to behave like a manual, but from what I gather, many manufacturers don't give you that option because "innovation" or something. If I can't configure an electric car to work like a ICE manual, which actually makes sense, then I don't want to drive it.
Yes, choice it what we need. If you don't like a feature, then just don't use it.
