I understand that. But building chargers using their ports is an option and will be something that happens. It just answers the customers of other OEMs of whether to charge their cars now. And even if Tesla controls a significant portion of the charging infrastructure now there'll be others that build chargers with that standard with time. And I'm sure there was some closed door agreement they came up with on pricing
Dude it's how many years of "electrify America" project that is supposedly supported by the biggest car manufacturer and the network is terrible. Nobody will go compete with nacs because Tesla has the market penetration and it's ubiquitous. I guess the mon-tesla will change the plugs on some select locations and that's it. But we'll see how it goes with the supercharger network after musk fired the entire team...
