As far as I know that additional jockey is added only on bikes using Bosch middrive, due to ultra small size of the cog used on Bosch drive. Even haibike doesn't put that jockey on bikes with Yamaha motors.

this is not a mid drive, but just an internal gear box. Pinion had plans to combine their box with the motor, but it was canceled a couple of years ago, and they now promote that motor should be located in rear hub, to prevent additional stress on drivetrain.

I have a bike with Bafang Max as well, and I don't have any motor cut brake levers (I have shimano hydraulic disc breaks). Motor cut brake levers are highly recommended if you only have a cadence sensors or throttle, but with torque sensor you can completely skip it.
