Personally, I don't care how it moves, just how fast it is. 0-15 kilometers an hour (pedestrians, wheelchairs, skateboards, skates, kids scooters): sidewalk. 15-45 kph (bikes, ebikes, motorized scooters, motorized skateboard-type things): bike lane. 45kph+, use a road lane.
If your device transcends these ranges, let your actual speed dictate which -- move your e-bike up to a road lane if you're going significantly faster than bikes around you. Follow whatever laws go with your lane. If you're riding your bike in a bike lane and come up to a stop light and want to cross in the pedestrian crosswalk, hop off the bike real quick and walk it through, then mount back up and get back in the bike lane.
This is it really. Well said.
