Filling up in 10 minutes instead of hours is worse because... it's so convenient and quick that you may forget to fill up the previous day? This is not a very good argument.

You can solve this by leaving the house ten minutes later, which you should do anyway in case something happens.

The idea with an electric car is you just plug it in every night automatically in your garage – if you're lucky enough to live in a house - every morning it's ready to go. You never have to think about it. Trip driving is different. Tesla made it easy where you can basically drive virtually anywhere in the US and they'll be a supercharger or two along the way. If you live in an apartment or a condo with no electricity then it's harder. You're also stuck with idiots saying you can't add an electric line because it'll burn the place down or something.
