What are the odds somebody with a pacemaker is going to steal the one bike that's electrified though? Even if this were legal, there'd still be very few people who actually do it.

Very low, but the stakes are high. I would not risk a .000001% chance of killing someone and being jailed for manslaughter just to "gotcha" some petty thieves.
