I agree and I see a lot of people concocting additional premises to make this seem like humanity's largest challenge. I would suspect many people are starting from where I am mentally on this topic. In my household we want to move to one gas/diesel vehicle, and one electric. If everyone did that it would be a significant shift in just about any related metric. You could leave everyone in rentals with gas vehicles, and if you have every single two car household with just one EV that's a massive change from today. No reason to go further than that at this point in time. Even if we do go beyond to create a doomsday scenario for EVs, it will be worked out because few of these things are unanswerable open questions. If this were hinging on some technological homerun like figuring out fission or the Alcubierre drive then I would feel differently about it.
