I can assure you, it's not an issue with most Tesla owners
After driving 250 miles and 4-5 hours, most people need to stop and eat or use bathroom
So if you need to stop twice to get your snack, of calm your kids, on let's say 750-mile trip, so be it.
You get FREE charging, while you have your lunch or dinner
I'm sure kids are happier when they stop for 30-40 min instead of 5
I think it's relevant that there are more gas stations than supercharger stations, and gas stations are spread all over the country (i.e. not just on heavily traveled interstates).

A manual transmission can be set to "comfort", "sport", and "track" modes simply by the technique and speed at which you shift it; it doesn't need "modes", modes are for manumatics that try to behave like a real 3-pedal manual transmission. If you can money-shift it, it's a manual transmission. "Yeah, but NO ONE puts an automatic trans shift knob on a manual transmission."
