Many who defend EV and the technology respond to all the factual shortcomings with: "They will figure it out." Who are "They" For the past 5 years the best minds- not in the US but the best minds on THE PLANET have used billions maybe trillions of $$$ into solving all the problems with battery powered vehicles. What is the status of all that planet wide R&D? Well the vehicles do terrible in cold and hot, have low range, are expensive, are a thermal runaway danger to anything near them, exploit child and human labor to mine the materials, pillage the earth by mining said materials...........and on and on. Not good progress considering Battery powered vehicles existed before internal combustion vehicles. EVs may be ok for some niche categories but my god- just stop it with the idol worship and shoving it down everyone's throat.
