>>But if the battery dies faster than expected or you reach a steep downhill while already at top speed...too bad, nothing the system can do to keep you from faceplanting at max speed.

riding at top speed EUC is very dangerous in itself, Inmotion I think can do 53 mph - thats fast even by car standards.

Riding top speed is surely recipe for certain death, any small pebble can faceplant you.

As long as you ride less than max speed (I never exceed 50% of max speed and never ride on <10% battery), there is enough of buffer for a wheel to behave just as you expect.

Pushing these limits is as dangerous as pushing speed limits on car.

you surely dont want to ride speed limit on your car, do you? (my car I think can do 190 mph, but I never reached even half of it)
