While I admit it's not accessible to all, charging at home requires absolutely no planning. Park the car? plug it in.
Do that, and you'll end up with more than enough charge for daily tasks.
I drive an EV and the only time I worry about fast charging is on road trips. Which, for me that happens once every and a half hours while driving (approximately) and gives me a 30 minute break to wash the windshield, grab a snack, use a restroom.
All in all, not really a big deal.
That, to me, is why it's overblown. With cars getting even longer ranges, it becomes even less of an issue. The first EV with 500 miles of range will be a game changer.
