  When I was in college, and much more willing to suffer, it was 335 miles from home to school, and took 5.5 hours driving. I could do that without stopping, though normally would stop at least once for snacks/bathroom. Now I’m more likely to stop two or three times on a trip that long. Even now on a mountain west traffic-free interstate I don’t really count on going more than 500 miles in a day. And that includes a meal break. Both of these use cases sound like they would be very minimally disrupted by planning my stops around a charging break. I think that range anxiety is largely overblown for a huge majority of use cases.
