Yes, in the same way a Cuisinart blender is a "monopoly" since I can only buy a Cuisinart blender from Cuisinart

No one's preventing anyone from building a better solution and making it available to consumers. Not a monopoly

I am not suggesting that Tesla has prevented anyone else from building charging stations. I am using the word monopoly in the non-antitrust sense here.

In what sense do you mean it, then?

Are any of these what you meant? https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/monopoly

None of those seem to apply to Tesla's charging stations to me. Could you explain more about what you're trying to say here?
