Careful about loaded words like "artificial". Arguably, in an hypothetical free-market, I would be able to sue every ICE car owner for the crap they push into my body and property. Let's see how popular they would be without that artificial legal protection. That aside, why are the costs less-bad? It's not like they'll stop making cars, it's just a different drivetrain. I'm sure there will be costs to the transition, but how do you figure they are worse than the external costs?
