There is an old saying in the computer biz: "G-d created heaven and earth in six days. But he didn't have an installed base".
The standards being used now are going to be with us for a very long time. From a North American viewpoint, I can see J3068 poised to rise as fleet operators start having their say.
TPC is not going anywhere. It would behoove third party fast charging companies to support TPC - as it seems stupid to ignore 70% or more of the EV market. (When it comes to road tripping, I'd argue more like 95+% are Teslas.). EVgo has made some moves to support TPC. Though more urban than along highway corridors. Nonetheless, I've usefully used an EVgo station with the integrated Tesla adapter several times.
On the CHAdeMO front, Nissan really should have gone to CCS with the Gen 2 Leaf. Waiting for the Ariya was a mistake. OTOH, considering what they are selling for on eBay, Tesla stopped production of the CHAdeMO adapter at least six months too early.
