EV chargers are scattered around in a way that gas stations aren't because EV chargers aren't their own separate stop the way gas stations are. With gas, the refilling process is short enough that you can reasonably just stand around and wait while it happens. But with EV charging, it takes long enough that you need some other reason to be at the place where the charger is, and so having nothing attached but a shitty convenience store isn't good enough.

You just made the point. EV chargers are hard to find.

I wasn't trying to refute it; I was trying to explain it (being for a different reason than the other person thought).
