The wild thing about people in the U.S. going crazy about Tesla’s connector vs CCS is that in Europe it’s all CCS. Our Model Y in Iceland has a standard CCS connector and it works fine. It’s like bikeshedding over USB-C power delivery vs using a proprietary power connector. The open standard works fine but the new open standard will also be nice for the U.S. What people should instead be focusing on is how Tesla was ever allowed to maintain a private charging network given the enormous amount of taxpayer funded bailouts/loans/credits/deductions they’ve received.
