Assuming a 50kWh Tesla Model 3 charging via USB C PD 3.1 EPR 240W, it would take around ~104hrs (4.3 days) to increase battery SoC by 50%.

That's not entirely true - the Tesla has a few hundred watts of overhead when charging - so a 240 W charger would probably not get over that hill. You could maybe keep the screen on and watch a movie while connected via USB-C.
Considering how frequently my fiancee and I drive, 10% per day of the base model's ~400km range would actually be enough
