Are we talking about Level 2 or fast chargers?
Level 2 is similar in complexity to gas stations (beyond the handshake process being more finiky than trusting the user installed it correctly).
High speed chargers are incredibly more complex than gasoline. You need to delivery a specific voltage and amperage to the car and both of those numbers change continuously as the battery charges.
Note the article is about high speed not level 2.
While physically it might not be much more complicated (note pulling off that kind of charging at almost a kW is no small feat) certainly the software is more complicated.
