This. Tesla needed to create it's own standard to make EVs possible. It then held onto it as it's golden-goose; milked the network lockin/advantage. Regulators going around them to open the network after-the-fact means a different standard makes it through; 'better' being irrelevant. As an (now older) Tesla owner - I do wish the Tesla charger had become standard; but the adapter isn't bad - it came with the car and just sits in the glovebox. It is OneMoreThing to lose though.
