> I'd be shocked if a non-negligible number of trips to the gas station for most car drivers involved entering the convenience store, particularly to "hit the restroom".

I'm going to contend you're exactly wrong, actually -- literally backwards.

For an electric car, routine fillups don't actually exist. You charge it at home and it's always "full" for commute trips.

Electric service station visits happen on long trips. Notably, so do bladder full exceptions and blood sugar shortfalls.
