It doesn’t take years as a rule. Many, many complex physical builds are completed in far less time than “years.”

> It doesn’t take years as a rule

Specially when you're investing BILLIONS on a project. Moreso id the changers are already standardized.

Are they permitted, funded and planned and built in less time than years? Not very many are. This a good thing, we don't want people cutting corners and building wherever they want. The downside is that we need to wait a little before we get what we want. I'm actually impressed that 7 have been fully constructed and opened in 2 years.
In fact, many building projects take years to just purchase the real estate to build on.
