If having an ebike makes you lazy, I can't imagine how bad you must think car and motorbike drivers are.
Using any bike makes a person less lazy than 90% of the population.
Using an ebike is substantially cheaper compared to a car, better for the environment, has the parking flexibility of a regular bike, gives a lot more exercise than just sitting on your butt in a car. And it either gets you places faster than a regular bike or equally fast without arriving drenched in sweat. And while not every city has steep hills, there are very few cities that never experience wind. And head winds are often just as great a challenge.
