Yes but not everyone lives in a flatland like the dutch do, I believe I could fully transition to a bicycle if cars weren't the top priority on my city, but I know many friends that live in parts of the city that are basically mountains.
Ebikes have really helped flatten things out in my area. I see plenty of couples in their 70s and 80s tooling around.
However they're not cheap, and I think there should be tax incentives for buying them.
In Canada I've seen some places advertising a 500$ rebate for ebikes.
In BC it's up to $1400 scaling with income!
