There are some factors that will adversely affect state of charge like really cold weather, but really cold weather also consumes more fuel in an ICE powered vehicle.

The time it takes and availability of recharging does take some adjustment and should be considered when shopping for an EV, but there's a lot of information out there for consumers to make an informed decision, and it's all free assuming you have internet access.

I don't understand what argument you're making about elite population of EV owners? There are plenty of folks who don't own a house that drive an EV. What charging gear are you referring to leaving outside all day or night? Doesn't sound like you have much experience with EVs or ownership. A car with a battery isn't prejudiced or elitist, it's just another inanimate object.
I love the way you just brush aside the fact that implementing EVs on a global scale isn't the real problem - the "real problem" is that people don't know how to plug the car into this newfangled electricity thing.

EVs are fun once you get to know them! Oh, and they're apparently cheap to acquire.
