Sure, I'll just travel to places to verify the source every time when I consume news. That's reasonable!

I've owned an electric since 2013, never run into a down charging station. Early on, I'd run into single chargers that were occupied, but that's it.

Not saying it's not possible to have a broken station, just never hit it. But I, like most people, charge at home, 95% of the time.

I drove a leaf for 3 years and it had 80 to start with and ended around 67. At the end, it was a pain, but didn't notice until around 70mi range. Somehow, 75 would get me from home, to the airport, to work, and back home again with room to breathe. At 67, it was nail biting.

To the point, 150 is probably good for quite a lot of people.

It depends on the state I've recently learned. Some states allow inheriting debt, others don't. Even some are in between allowing it for spouses only.
