I agree with you (and in fact I just did a road trip between the San Francisco Bay Area and Las Vegas via Death Valley in my EV) but it's probably not ideal for everyone.

I just don't understand how they not going to the toilet or filling up with fuel during six or more hours non stop.

Six hours in the UK can be over 450 miles at motorway speed, very few ICE cars can do over 450 miles in six hours on one tank of fuel with a safety margin.

450 miles at motorway speed rather than hyper mileing at 60mph (preferably 56mph) seriously dents your economy EV or ICE.
