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.

Pinion MGU also exists. 9 and 12 speed variants with an electric motor. I believe ZF is working on one as well.

Definitely on the lookout for one to use as my commuter bike in the next year or so for sure!

250 W is too weak to go without gears.

Segway sharing bicycles have interesting solution, automatic mechanical transmission:
