Not to mention the fact that the plan is for most folks to charge their EVs at night, when solar is a no-go.

If everyone charges one vehicle a night in your neighborhood, your neighborhood transformers are not going to survive very long. They are not sized to be running at near or full capacity 24/7, they were sized with the expectation that at night, the neighborhood power demand would be very low, the night is generally cooler too, and the transformer could cool down somewhat before the daytime peak power usage begins.
