I don't think that is logical.

I can pick fights on the internet about evolution, but that does not have any bearing on the reality of the situation. If these cars got 5k miles to the charge I could still start "discussion" about the range, but that wouldn't show that range is still an issue.

The fact that anything is "being discussed" means nothing at all. You have to analyze the validity of the points being raised in that discussion.



"If these cars got 5k miles to the charge I could still start "discussion" about the range, but that wouldn't show that range is still an issue."

Sure there would be, but it would be a positive discussion.

Allow me to be more specific since you want to nitpick my choice of words. The simple fact that there are questions regarding the range of this vehicle shows there is an issue.

If this vehicle had a similar range to that of the majority of vehicles no one would be arguing about the range, because no one would care. If anything everyone would be raving about this car because it would literally be the future of the car industry.


> Sure there would be, but it would be a positive discussion.

Not at all, I could start a conversation with any tone I wished.

I'm not trying to nitpick words, I just don't think that you can make any conclusions about reality just by noting that people are discussing something, in a positive manner or otherwise. There just isn't any relationship between reality and what people discuss.
