I’m extremely happy with the stopping power of my hydraulic brakes - I have no experience with non hydraulic, but these are awesome for me, given the power offered by my ebike

You’ve described your needs really clearly — torque and comfort matter a lot, especially for hill climbing and heavier loads.
It’s a good way to compare bikes before buying or to see whether you’d benefit from a stronger mid-drive system.

I have no complaints with the stopping power of the mechanical disc brakes on my Aventon Sinch ST. I suspect mechanical brakes may need more frequent adjustment than hydraulics, but on the other hand you never have to bleed them.
