You missed the point of my question; A CG has 30 Amp sites, decides they want to have more of the 2 AC units stop instead of going down the road. If they are trenching, and pushing pipe to run the extra wire for the 50 AMP service to sites, how much extra money would it take to also put in charge ports?

Not alot extra, if you look at it like you are and aren't considering ALL the costs, including not only upgrading for the 2 AC folks as you put it, but also 2AC + EV, same site.
Add to that, permitting, environmental plans/approvals, overhead costs for those items, service upgrade costs from the utility company, design costs AND, then the additional cost of materials and installation of bigger wire/conduits/service and distribution panels and the actual charge peds.

I understand that people, like yourself, who don't or didn't do this as a profession couldn't be expected to understand, but as an example,
I have one project currently, design-build, so I see or incur a good portion of the overall cost of the improvements.
Rough numbers, total project value, $10 million. Actual construction budget (men, machines and materials), about $6 million. Probably add another million at least to it for the permitting, environmental and utility relocations/upgrades, that were done by the client prior to and somewhere around half the overall cost doesn't put pipe and wire in the ground.

Will it happen? Yup. Will technology advance more than now? Yup
Do many people seriously underestimate the cost/time/effort involved (my "meat comes from the grocery store" analogy)? Yup again.
