That's nonsense though. Yes cost/space was a factor but it's not like they built the first one in the absolute cheapest acre they good find, then put the second one in the second cheapest... Proximity to amenities, to neighborhoods with high ev ownership, distance to the nearest charging station, traffic etc... Dozens of factors. Meanwhile of course: will women (~50% of the population) be willing to use this is itself an economic consideration.

What is nonsense is the supposed expert's failure to discuss "Proximity to amenities, to neighborhoods with high ev ownership, distance to the nearest charging station, traffic etc... Dozens of factors.", as you mention. These are all factors that can be readily encompassed under the heading of economics and available space. The best situated, safest, cheapest and most desirable locations for fueling vehicles are already occupied by gas stations. There is nothing that women can do about that, just by looking at the situation differently -- that's the nonsense underlying the expert's commentary.
