Isn't. Just like phone makers are pushing fast charging. Nice to have but not required.
You and everyone else on this car forum forget. Cars are luxury products that have only been around 100 years.

The average person you are trying to sell a basic car to is not going to agree with the 'it's just a luxury product' when their car is a crucial component of how they get to their work, their home, how they pickup their kids, how they pickup their groceries, and how they visit their family.
