It's massively oversimplifying the trade-off to reduce it to a single metric, and it proposes a false choice.
Why not also consider reducing congestion, reducing local-air-pollution related respiratory conditions, etc?
And compared to the known types of huge government expenditures that might be doing actual harm to some subset of citizens (i.e. lives lost in wars of questionable value) why point the finger at electric buses?
