I get your point, but no. This is the type of thinking that led to the stagnation of the auto industry.

Why not roll out EVs that easily? The most profitable case company is doing it.... why would anyone go anything else?

I'm sorry, I don't follow. In what way?

I'm all in favor of rolling out EVs. I'm in favor of new technical innovations. I'm in favor of better regulations. In short, I'm in favor of doing many things at once to combat one of our biggest emergencies.
