It's easier and more seamless, but it's also a lot slower to fill up. I guess that's why the car has Netflix...

TBH, the charge time hasn't really bothered me. I've got a phone which I can surf the internet on or netflix in the car. Most charging spots are usually near enough to food or bathrooms so I can generally grab something to eat or use restrooms.

If you plan things out well, you generally don't end up waiting too long for fast charging.

In 99% of cases you don't need to specifically wait for the car to charge. You can go do your shopping, grab lunch, smoke etc. Stuff you most definitely can't do while refueling a car =)
