> ICE cars fuelling speed isn't limited by the temperature of the gas tank when you arrive. Gas refueling speed is absolutely affected by temperature and there are unsafe temperatures to refuel at. I've owned cars with vacuum sealed tanks that need a short wait and a mechanical unseal with safety checks before you refuel. I've seen gas pumps shut off because of outdoor temperature. Just because we can do everything in software doesn't mean we don't have a history of mechanical solutions. Everything old is new again. Software is ultimately cheaper to update/fix and this is likely going to remain a driving force. There's also, yes, the trust factor in relying on automated software versus say mounting a battery temperature gauge on a dashboard and trying to train owners to check it or fidlde a bunch of switches around it before charging. |
