This thought is a little out there. It's becoming apparent that in the VHS/Betamax race between the Tesla charging standard and the SAE charging standard, the Tesla one will eventually lose - despite the fact that it's technically much better (like Betamax).
There are a lot of new SAE charging stations being built. I wonder if Tesla has considered going to SAE for the Model 3? Yes they can make an SAE to Tesla adapter, but this business of adapters is clunky and clearly a short term accommodation. Eventually all cars will have to talk to all chargers without adapters.
