eBike vs traditional bike comparison

Hey everyone! New here and super excited to dive into the eBike world. I've been a traditional road cyclist for years, tackling everything from local commutes to weekend century rides on my trusty Specialized Tarmac. Lately, though, I've been eyeing e-road bikes for those hillier routes or even just making my daily errands a bit breezier.

For those of you who've made the switch or own both, what's your take on the biggest pros and cons of an eBike compared to a traditional road bike, especially for longer distances or varied terrain? I'm curious if the "assist" takes away from the workout too much, or if it just opens up new possibilities.
