It just means there need to be more chargers. North American charging infrastructure is fractured between the open CCS standard and the propriety Telsa plug. It would be much better if North America standardized on CCS so all EVs can charge at all chargers. At this point it just means Tesla needs to switch to CCS.
Europe has more sensibly standardized on CCS Type 2 Combo. All brands of EV can charge at all chargers on all charging networks. And even Tesla is slowly opening their chargers to other brands.
