I agree, but something being distraction does not automatically mean it’s addictive. Gear shifting is a distraction, but we don’t consider it addictive.

There are a lot of reasons for distraction while driving, but we don’t call all of them addiction on that premise. If a driver was not looking at his phone - maybe he’d be looking …

Because it is proven that phone usage is not an addiction like drugs or alcohol. People put phones away easily if they have a reason to do so.

What are we trying to achieve by removing the lockfiles?

You can check Bosch Chinese competitor Bafang - they copy Bosch solutions and also very popular among bicycle makers. https://bafang-e.com/en/home/

I’ve heard that the biggest complaint is the automatic gear shifter which broke quite frequently.

Any bike that uses Bosch battery/motor kits. Those batteries are available on the market separately.
