From a slightly different perspective, I can see where they might make ‘rational sense’ where one commutes but has a decent solar and battery set-up at home - it’s been reported that home utility charging Kw rates are often as much as gasoline…
On a different note, a modern petro powered automoblle is very nearly a pollution free vehicle (except for CO2 and water vapor), meaning much cleaner than the power produced at the power-plant and ‘sucked up’ by EV’s - a home solar and power-wall can close the EV loop…

That makes perfect sense to me but of course your leaving the most important part and that is regulation. The government cannot regulate something as small as your description so it must be a huge conglomerate in order to line pockets. There is a scam right now in Florida and it’s everything I spoke of in this post. The state of Florida will pay for the actual parts of a solar install and that’s great but the catch is that the labor to install it comes with a thirty year mortgage. Again nothing is st it seems just like the EV.
You’ve nailed it, but like designer clothes and such, cost (or critical thinking - R.I.P.) doesn’t seem to matter much where the opportunity presents itself to project ‘green trendiness’ - lol
Follow the marketing (of self-esteem) and the moola - heck, what’s not to like??
