Aesthetics matter to some people. I would be a little more sad if I had to plug in a chunky CCS charger rather than the relatively-small charger Teslas have now.
(To be clear, standardizing on CCS is likely a good thing and I'd support it, but, y'know … I'd be a little sadder)
Up to a certain size, it doesn't really matter. But anything larger than the tesla one does get increasingly unweildly.
Yeah, if you haven’t ever used the alternatives (Chademo or US CCS) and compared to Tesla, it’s hard to grok why it’d be a usability issue.
Chademo is ridiculous but also dead and nobody ever has to use it. Most EV owners, most of the time, are charging from the smaller AC J1772 plug at home or at a public charger. Fast DC charging for long trips is now and will remain a minor use case that pretty much nobody cares about, and having to use a slightly larger plug on 1% of your trips is not going to be something people get worked up about.
