I’m not sure why you are focusing on AC vs DC charging when your original assertion was related to the maximum wattage the battery can handle, which as I said is much bigger than 12kW.
Also, even the 12kW would be the wrong maximum for home charging. The Model Y has an 11kW onboard charger for converting AC to DC, so if you have a 3-phase supply at home then this is the maximum your car can convert (NOT that the battery can handle as you suggest). If you have single phase then it’s 7kW.
