I think you missed my point. Note that you said "few" and I called that out. And then you reply with (paraphrasing) "but you're not supporting more than few / many". You're right. I didn't. That's my point.
I think we can agree on what you said in (1) but we should table (2) for now because it's not getting us anywhere in this or the other threads. And more broadly, (a) I think we can agree on giving Tesla a pass for "some time" while they get Europe, Japan, etc. underway and we see the CHAdeMO results that come out of that and (b) I hope we can agree that we're not going to get a consensus on the "demand" or "value" of CHAdeMO for North America on TMC for at least 6 months.
A dense number of CHAdeMO locations can be counted on two hands. You could make the argument that Tesla has done a better job actually by heavily hitting California where almost 1/3rd the Model Ss live and now Portland to Vancouver. That isn't a knock on the people who who want the adapter, just a statement of fact. Not all Tesla customers live in those areas just as not all Tesla customers live in areas with Superchargers at the moment.
Again, I hope they come out with the adapter. While it might not currently be useful to 'depends on how you define few' Tesla customers, it is very useful to the people who live in areas that have them or drive to cities that have them (because I don't know of any CHAdeMO stations outside I5 and maybe Tennessee that are clustered along major highways between cities).
