That's not a good analogy because in this case the snow plows still plow so some snow is still removed. To use your analogy then they would have sold existing plow-capable trucks and not had any to plow, but that wasn't the case.
The concern here is that the stopgap measure (the tarp/electric trucks) are implemented too early. The superior replacement window does not yet exist. There is no need to remove the older window and deal with a hole in the side of your house for half a year while you wait for new windows to hit the market.
As an EV owner. I can use my car in about 95% cases: that’s plenty! Way cheaper than gas, no maintenance required, super comfortable, etc. The remaining 5% is when I need to drive somewhere rough or when it’s very cold outside and I have concerns about getting stuck.
There is no way I will give up the convenience of EV for those 5%.
