      If you don’t live on the first floor and don’t have an elevator, it matters a lot. There’s zero chance I’d use my current ebike if I weren’t living on the bottom floor. I cannot reliably safely do that. Doing basic maintenance is much harder due to the weight than for aluminum or carbon acoustic bikes, which is necessary to keep a bike reliable and safe to ride. And when you do fall, it has a lot more momentum to hurt you.
