i get what he’s trying to say, it’s just phrased poorly and misusing “to which”. it seems like someone trying, and failing, to sound smart.
one way to see if you should use “which”, “to which” or “for which” is to put the preposition at the end and see if that sounds like something an actual human speaker of the language would say (yes, it’s technically grammatically incorrect to put a preposition at the end of a sentence, but whatever)
i.e.
he will most likely question it which i will have no reason to justify as to why i did it to
rephrasing it
he will most likely question it, for which i will have no justification

- Comment on Amsterdam testing system that can remotely slow e-bikes down 1 month ago:
Running a motor at or near its mechanical limit for long periods is very bad for it and also is less efficient (in terms of fuel economy). That’s why cars are “capable” of 140mph, even though there is nowhere you can actually drive that fast except for race tracks.
