I can fill my gas tank from 0-100% in less than five minutes and it has a range of 430 miles. Your numbers rely on availability of the super duper chargers and they still dont pencil out in favor of EVs vs ICE on long drives especially when considering range.
While I don’t entirely disagree, we’re a lot closer than you seem to think
My cars trip planner tends to ask 10-15 minutes of charging at trip chargers to stay on the steep part of the charging curve, and that’s good for 3-4 more hours of driving
It’s not quite as fast as filling a gas tank but if you go in to use the restrooms, you’re most of the way there. It’s really hardly any inconvenience
You are basically a rare edge case that makes current EVs a poor fit for your usage/requirements.
EVs make driving better for a vast majority of drivers, but not everyone.
