>> calling for a denser EV charging infrastructure that would reduce range anxiety
I hate that term "range anxiety". It suggests some kind of psychological issue with the driver when in fact there is a real issue with EVs with a small battery.
Stelamtis will save money being late to the party, but they may also have trouble securing volumes if they wait too long.

The main issue is that the EV charging stations all have bullshit social networks attached to them, and therefore do not reliably accept credit card payments.

This I totally agree with. Most EV charging stations are owned by middlemen running networks. The end game will be level 3 chargers at every highway rest stop and McDonalds, where they will simply take cash or credit card payment and charge while you eat and use the restroom.
