Eh, I'd say it goes away after your first road trip, unless you're going somewhere remote.

I've had my BEV for about 5 1/2 years. My first road trip (Portland -> Santa Clara, ~560 miles each way), I planned it out ahead of time with ABRP. These days, I'll just let the nav figure it out.

First time I did an EV road trip, I just plugged it straight into the car screen and followed directions. I didn't have anyone with me, and was willing to accept some degree of "adventure". I did about 800 miles in a day, and had zero real issues.

I have been totally unconcerned about it since.
