“Did you see the charging times in the article? One truck was on charge for 3 hours.”
Which was an uncommon out-of-network event. As more superchargers are networked that won’t be occurring.

Having more superchargers does not fix the 3 hour charge time. The 3 hours was because the battery was less than 20%, it was at 1.6%.
Stop with the obfuscations. I already posted once about this very example in this thread.
FTA
"The third Semi managed 377 miles on day one, leaving the battery at 1.6% before charging for three hours and completing an additional 165 miles. These numbers show that the Semis can cover significant distances within their demonstrated range and comfortably handle some charging time during the day."
The article literally describes the need to accommodate charging time, it just underplays it rather significantly, much like you are doing.

“Uncommon out of network event”?
That was three trucks across two days of testing, so about 18% probability. In a carefully orchestrated event, one trucker inadvertently ran it down to a puckering 1.6% charge on a regular route. Not exactly inspiring.
