This is correct. Riding with an actual bicycle in NYC's traffic between cars and buses is rather safe. The delivery E-Bikes on cycle lane and cycle paths are a danger. It is not the speed. I also ride fast on a roadbike. It is the behavior. They pass you without any space on a small cycle lane between walkway and parked cars. Don't expect "On you left" or "On you right".
PS: I think bicycles and E-Bike shall be not considered as the same type of vehicle. In Austria they distinguish even between roadbikes (can always select safest surface depending on their speed: road, cycle lane, cycle path) and bicycles (should use distinct cycle paths when possible).
