There are a few who are happy with anything but the techy ones all scream for 30 amp 220V min EVSEs.
I am glad to hear that (although it doesn't have to be screamed, it is just stating the obvious, in my mind). However the articles and videos which came to my attention so far, have been, unfortunately, quite consistent in this regard. Referring to the article you quoted, I'd wonder what the point would be of having the J1772 AC Level 2 standard for non-fast charging, if you then have to carry along 120V-outlet adapters all the time.
Airport long-term parking seems such an exception, and even there, if you have a 300 mile pack, and are just going on a short trip, coming back 48 hours later, 120V Outlets are probably already limiting the possible charge. J1772 EVSE's will surely come down in price, once the quantities are larger. The less expensive ones are already at $751, if not less. (In comparison, the Panasonic/Nissan 120V adapter is $508, according to Plug In America.)
Although the shown J1772 charging points look more expensive than that (yet charging is offered at no additional cost), I wonder why he has to complain about the only three J1772 charging points he could find. It's often more expensive to be the first, and usually the early options are limited. I'm all in favor of not making it a habit to buy super-expensive machines on tax payer cost, so I don't mind if he, in some context, raises that as a concern, but we have to start somewhere, and 120V outlets really aren't the better alternative. Also, in my mind, it would make EVs appear more like toys, than like a cost-effective yet serious alternative to ICEs. It would increase the perception (and actually, the reality) that EVs take long to charge.
