A 50kW charger may sound useless, but in just a short 10 minute break (use the restroom, have a coffee, pay and get back in the car) it gives you 8.3 kWh - which on a model S, whose efficiency I find rated between 3 and 3.8 miles/kWh, means from 25 to 31 miles of range. It might easily be the topping off you need to comfortably reach your destination (or a fast charger!) And if we're talking about a fast charger, that can mean 62 miles added in 10 minutes - we're quickly getting into not-at-all-useless ranges. Agreed it kind of sucks for a full recharge though. On the other hand I already see people fueling the bare minimum to reach another gas station for brand loyalty/affiliate program rewards.
