[Update]
Got in touch with Dave, he's super helpful and walking me through the teardown process and said he's got parts to get it up and running.
Dave said that likely some grit worked its way into the bearing and caused it to fail, which judging by the outside mud on my drive is totally...
Spot on, bearing looks like it exploded pieces all ground up in there. Hopefully its not needing new gears too...

They both have their strengths and weaknesses.
But not having deep pockets I opted for to forget suspension in the traditional sense, the luna cycle fat...
Chain squat issue being in extreme power examples that our ebikes will likely never see, unless you made "death bike" suspension.
Most suspension bikes are compromises I agree with you there.
Which is why the Luna Cycle platform has the most bang for the buck value of the options available...
