> Because there WASN'T a fast charging DC infrastructure or standard when they started building their network.

That was then. This is now.

And for the record, I DC fast charged my Nissan LEAF before Tesla even built a single Supercharger. No, not using CCS, but still.

So suggesting Tesla had to decide to go it alone doesn't work. They chose to.

> At this point you'd be asking them to retrofit thousands of stations at their cost because the standard is now set

If they want to ask for financial aid to adapt chargers I'm fine with that. If instead of retrofitting their chargers they simply are prevented from building any new ones that only work with Teslas I'm fine with that.

For a person who is on my side you sure are making up a whole lot of roadblocks to my side. Why?

Yes, I'm saying Tesla should have to decide:

Is CCS infrastructure an asset?

If yes. Then it's time for them to join in it.

If no, then ban Teslas from using CCS infrastructure. Ban them from other (DC) chargers other than their own monopolistic network.

If their idea is "it's useful so we want our cars to use it but we're not going to help anyone else" then they can go hang.
