> Grabbing a handful of throttle can and will surprise a newbie, pretty much on any ICE bike >400cc; electrics  even more so...

Grabbing a handful of throttle is a fossil fuel habit, born of weak motors that require spin up before they have power.  If you start on electric, you don't have these bad habits.

Eh. I started on ICE bikes 45 years ago now (my 12th birthday), and I didn't have any problem at all transferring over a few years ago. It's a foolish rider who doesn't familiarize himself with his ride before whacking open the throttle.
