Also to note that SRAM have recently acquired Hammerhead, who could fully intergrate the e-Bike motor into the Karoo headunit, or even (rapidly) produce a cut-down dedicated unit to allow control of the motor, battery, sensors etc.. This is a key part of the Bosch, Shimano systems. 
With the increased use of the electrical systems in other sensors (eg the Quarc Wizards) as well as AXS, and maybe in the future Rockshox, the integration will be a useful factor.
