Sure, but this conversation was about an urban area being converted from industrial to residential.

The people who will be living there with ICEs will certainly be driving them past gas stations elsewhere in the city.

No, we're not. We're talking about Norway as a whole, a country where for the vast majority of people, "urban centers" are few and far between. With an anecdote that highlights that even in urban setting there are areas where it's apparently easier to drive an EV than ICE.
