You just need a charging station every hundred kilometres or so, that's perfectly doable even in sparsely populated areas. In fact, this kind of infrastructure is far easier to roll out than gas stations.

I'd rather not refuel in -20F weather on a single trip. Add in a trailer and a road trip becomes a charging trip with intermittent driving.

Yeah, we should make all our infrastructure decisions based on the rarest edge cases.

You do what you want. But I'll make my infrastructure decisions based on my edge cases. Others will as well. Sometimes those edge cases are important to people.
