You are applying your set of values to the OPs situation, here. I don't see how that is ever relevant in a conversation, other than as a comment on your own values. Telling others how to value things or live their lives is no concern of ours, as it is a personal angle to take. Whatever the OP values, is for him to decide. Whatever his emotions, they are his. For all I know, using the CHAdeMO charger takes him less time than using an AC charger, or the same. I don't know how he lives, what his options are and it is all quite irrelevant.
Actually, it is also quite irrelevant also that the OP is displeased with the delay in his long-range driving. I can sympathize a fellow TMC member, but that alone would be of no concern of mine. What we - unless we want to make this personal - should IMO concern ourselves with are the facts that matter in a broader sense:
1) Was the OP using the car as recommended by the manfacturer?
2) Is the OP being truthful?
3) How long is Supercharging really slowed down by throttling?
4) Has manufacturer disclosed everything they need to regarding charging?
5) And finally, what would an average, reasonable person think about all this?
Judgement calls like where the OP likes to spend his time or how he values time are completely irrelevant and highly personal. We are all humans and we feel differently about things. And it is OK. What should concern us are the facts.
That's why
@ohmman 's point about the real delay caused by throttling and its significance overall was a fair point in my opinion. The individual emotions attached to numbers vary from person to person, but putting a number on it, is something that helps pinpoint the facts. How big of a throttling is speculated to be employed here? Once we have that, we can of course discuss what the average, reasonable response would be.
Irrelevant. First of all, we don't know what the throttling limit is, he might have gotten there through Supercharging eventually as well. But most importantly, if he was not advised by manufacturer or reasonable common knowledge to avoid DC charging, then all this is hindsight and of no actual value - his missing the limitations would thus have been a co-incidence, not the result of any knowing action.
Seeing that even places like TMC discuss DC charging at home as a viable option, it was not common knowledge or advised by manufacturer to avoid CHAdeMO use. DC charging has mostly been avoided because of its limited availability (highly region dependent, though), not because it was known to be something to avoid.
