Is the situation really that bad in the US for non Tesla chargers?
For me in the UK and France, the situation has greatly improved over the past two years. I almost don't have to prepare for shorter journeys (4-5 hours) and just slightly for longer ones where I just need to find a charger next to a place to eat.
It's very hit or miss in the US. Some states have been better than others. The US is obviously a huge country so the abundance and quality of charging infrastructure is inconsistent (with Tesla being the one exception).

It sounds like Hyundai (and thus also Kia) is telling Tesla they are fine with NACS as long as Tesla starts having superchargers supporting 800V
Yeah I sure hope they move forward. Honestly I don't even mind a lower rate (temporarily at least) if it means way more options for reliable charging.
