Sure, that is a valid argument. But it doesn’t change the fact that the government was successfully lobbied into changing what their grant money could be used for, seemingly overnight. When the grants were announced, CCS was said to become the standard. Due to that, many car companies stuck with CCS, and no doubt that some consumers (myself included) bought a CCS vehicle expecting it to be further developed.

That’s all I was trying to say - I’m more miffed regarding the lobbying than the connector itself.
