"But sometimes . . . "

90% of what 90% of people do can be served fine with an EV with everything as it exists right now. In fact, I find it's better. Maybe it can't be your only car. Your personal issues with the technology for your case is no reason to hold back the rest of society.

So, you are fine doubling the cost of ownership for those people can't use EVs all the time for everything? Nor did I say that my, and a noticeable number of other people, want to hold society back on EVs. Only that's it NOT the clear cut solution for everyone 90% of the time. But you would seem to want to "force a square peg into the round hole solution".
