Yeah, I think the goal of these systems is not that everyone has a MW charger in their home. You still (relatively) slow-charge the car at night, and only use the MW chargers for infrequent highway top-ups

Most likely gas stations will have to buy these systems to keep their business running.

It's mandatory for gas stations to install at least one EV charger in a lot of EU countries. Spain recently started requiring one EV charger per 20 spaces in every parking structure. The electric transition may not be fast, but it's happening.
