Mopeds can only operate on streets, they cant go in bikelanes or sidewalks. They are subject to the same restrictions as cars (licensure, registration) except that they uniquely have a speed limit
Not having a speed limit is unique only to private car ownership

No, you've got it backwards. NYC categorises mopeds by top speed, where class A don't have a speed limit.
As a secondary issue, you're claiming an NYC rule (that you've misconstrued) is evidence of pro-car rules worldwide, and also you're omitting motorbikes (and class A mopeds) even in NYC.
The NYC classification allow relaxations of rules for class B and C mopeds. No helmet required for class C. No inspections required for B or C. These are pro-moped rules. It seem really unobjective to see them as evidence of pro-car thinking.
