I agree there are lots of issues, not just with cyclists, but all MUP users, that could be addressed. The extreme outliers should be aware they are making the situation more dangerous and unpleasant for all. I put e-bikes in that extreme, particularly on uphills, where let's say, the average cyclist is riding at 12 mph, and the e-bike is passing everyone at 20 mph. Using the MUPs to get around traffic and cheat the system is really unfair to those using the MUPs as intended.
I don't have an e-assist bike but occasionally consider one. Mostly because I would love to do 12 mph up hill. I'm getting tired of getting passed by the joggers when I'm climbing.
