I realize why they did it, but I don't see why Lucid should magically have a much harder time doing the same thing, especially when they can actually draw from the deep pockets of other manufacturers to help when Tesla couldn't do that.At the time nobody was creating a charging structure for Tesla to participate in. And even now they have the CHAdeMO adapter, and I assume a CCS adapter will be coming. But even then most of the CCS stations that are out there are too slow for what Tesla wants. So again, pretty much nobody is doing what Tesla has done. Sure now there is some talk about it, but even so it seems like the most you will get is 1-4 plugs at each station. Again, just not enough for the volume that Tesla is planning to produce.
The supercharger network is great, but there's no reason that any other company couldn't build an equivalent network in the same amount of time.
