Technology Connections made a great video showing that most people don't need a dedicated charger for an EV, a standard plug in a garage usually works just fine unless you have specific needs.
I agree with your other points, and it's a reason I don't have an EV either.
It also is practically impossible to get an EV that isn't chock full of invasive user-tracking equipment. Only the Slate EV truck seems like it might avoid the privacy invasive stuff, as well as having physical controls and no touch-screen at all.
