Yeah, I have been very surprised by the fact that e-bikes require you to think less about clothing than regular bikes.
In the hot summer you sweat buckets on a regular bike, but an e-bike is cooler than just walking because not only are you not exerting yourself, but the speed generates a breeze.
And in the winter you can choose to pedal a little harder to compensate for the cold wind and again stay the same temperature just as walking.
E-bikes are much closer to walking than traditional cycling when dealing with temperatures.

Obviously rain is gonna suck though.
