I admittedly fall into this camp. .
Thing is this isn't a perception, it is reality. It matters if an EV meets "most but not all" your needs if its the only vehicle available to purchase. That's why I remain a secret member of the "fuel cell team". With infrastructure, it meets 100% of the same needs as ICE, in the same convenient way. I know its wishful thinking and isn't going to happen but if fuel cell was where EV is today, I'd be all in.

That's the part the "EV or no V crowd" wants to overlook.
