I was able to reproduce the problem with powering on while driving. Overall no issues though, and a brisk ride, mostly first assist and 7th gear. It's possible that the support is stronger than on other e-bikes I've ridden. After 45 km only 3 battery lines are left. It will be enough to go back.

At the Klingnau reservoir I noticed a few smaller ducks with a white eye line that I couldn't name directly. According to the Internet, it is the garnet, whose name can be traced back to a typical noise when it flies away.
