So instead of building some gas stations here and there we just install hundreds of thousands charging stations on private and public property across a metro?

It's not a "charging station", it's an electrical outlet. Your house probably has a couple dozen of them, they're cheap and easy to install. In cold regions, most parking spots already have one so people can plug in their block heater. That's proof by example that it can be done.

You need to change your view of a "charging station". It's not the huge fridge sized thing that says "Electrify America" or something on it.

It's just a normal plug, maybe with some components related to metering and billing included. Load balancing if you want to be fancy.
