Its true that everyones situation is different, but just because someone is considering the SR+ does not mean "range is a non issue". People (many many many people) Look at the range and say to themselves 'Oh this car has 250 miles range, thats plenty", not understanding that, no the car does not have "250 miles range" for the average person.
Since the usable range of most EVs for daily use is 90% to about 20 %, that means for practical purposes the rated range is from 225 to 50, or 175 miles of "rated range". Add to that, people in general dont drive like the rated range, so miles dont roll off at a 1:1 clip. 175 miles of rated range is likely around 150 actual miles. That doesnt even count sentry mode, or heating usage, etc.
Now, if you charge every day in your garage, and dont drive more than 100 miles a day, thats fine... but a LOT of people who are considering SR+ are people who are like "dont have charging at home, but I can charge at work" , or "there is a super charger 5 miles from me, and I only drive 25 miles to work and back every day, so since this car has 250 miles range, I can charge up every 9-10 days or so, so that will be fiiiinnnnneeeee".
Then, they buy the car, and realize what I just said above, then come here and start off posting that there is something wrong with their car, they went to tesla but tesla tells them its fine, but "omg why do I only get 160 miles out of my SR+? Its broken, right?"
The reason people tend to "recommend the fastest computer" even if you are only going to run MS word, or a car with more range, is because then you have options. Maybe you only do microsoft word NOW, but you decide you want to start editing photos of your grandkids 2 years from now. Or, maybe you discover you have a knack for streaming youtube videos, and you you start wanting to edit video.
If you bought that $200 chromebook because "I just do word" then you are likely buying another computer. Thats fine too, but thats where the advice comes from. People almost never say things like "Man this TV is too big" or "man my car is too fast" or "My car goes too far on one charge!" but they obviously say the reverse, all. the . time.
As you said, everyones case is different, but the vast majority of people would be served buying a LR car, if they can afford it, even those who "just drive it around town", because, in general, people are looking at the 250 miles range and not understanding that after everything, its really 150 miles range that you are using on a daily basis.
