I wouldn't call any vehicle, electric or not, "hands-free". That is simply dangerous marketing.
Personally, I like bicycles over scooters because it is more of an open ecosystem. Many people know how to fix/maintain bikes, the tools and parts are mostly interchangeable between different bike manufacturers, and there are many accessories available that are universal.
You can even buy kits to electrify regular bicycles.
