I should have elaborated a long time ago, but IMHO there isn't anything inherently bad about using a bike swingarm and/or wheel on a trike... provided the vehicle is weight and traction and speed limited such that the light/re-applicated parts don't get overloaded and break or merely wear out prematurely. So yeah, even I'd be comfortable with that setup in something like a neighborhood NEV.
As noted, I had been thinking along the lines of a 5-passenger car application with little reduction in payload capacity.
