I haven’t gone electric shifting because of cost, I haven’t gone electric shifting because its a proprietary system that relies on the good will of the company.
I also think the wireless bit is pointless (particularly with ebikes), just 2 more batteries to worry about and probably some app I’d rather not need. Even with a folding bike, I don’t really care if there’s 1 less cable (though digital would mean more freedom with cable routing).
A cable-actuated derailleur that could sense if it were out-of-tune (especially if it could tell you exactly what needs adjustment by exactly how much) would probably be enough for me.

Make it open source and I’ll jump.

I’m sticking with cables, no need to charge them lol
