Musk promised that the Tesla network would be open to other manufacturers by the end of 2022. Nobody really knows what's going on now, and I sure hope that the late-2022 decision to open-source the NACS standard isn't what's holding progress up. Only one of these two standards is going to win: the faster we pick one the quicker we can make progress.

In this case while I prefer NACS myself, I'm worried that convincing a dozen manufacturers to switch standards is going to take much longer than just adding a second CCS connector to (many) Superchargers. Otherwise we could lose years to this, and still wind up with CCS everywhere.
