The envisioned car charging situation is that you charge your car at home or at work. Cars sit unused 99% of the time, they can use that time charging without issues.

What we are experiencing now is transitional, where people use infrastructure intended for road-trips for their daily needs. That phase will pass

Exactly.

I charge at my parking spot with around 2-2.5kW power use. With that I'll get about 100-150km of range overnight easily. I drive less than that daily, which means my car's battery is full practically all the time.
