Never saw a pic with the cables stretched out. So the connectors can be dropped on the ground. In the USAF I was used to dealing with power cables all the time. The connectors would get damaged by use from people not watching what they were doing. Had to replace them constantly way ahead of their time. They were also rubber. Idiot proofed them some.

Copper thieves would be very happy for all the cables laying around.

In my apartment the parking lot needs to be resurfaced but that ain’t happening. They do not even line up the concrete tire blocks in the space the car parks in. I cannot see more power lines being run thru-out the valley and city and country and everyone being forced to have to pay the big expense to install a charger then have to pay the very high electric rate.

California charges approx 20 cents a KW now which is nearly double than most places in the country. Plus watch their car and/or home burn to the ground when something shorts.

You read about “Fast” chargers. This is like “Lite rail” or “urban housing” “Low cost” or any other gov’t euphemisms.
It is the opposite of their meaning. Your car insurance will go sky high as any damaged electric vehicle will be a total writeoff.

Waiting for an hour and a half and more.
Imagine it cold and snowing or raining.

Now the battery dies and you call into work saying I will be late as I have to come up with $20,000 or more for a new battery. I should be into work when my 10 year loan comes thru.
