For sure companies and people will take the path of least resistance; companies will always prioritize the bottom-line. It seems most consumers are tipped toward EVs because of the incentives and things like carpool lane waivers.

EVs are a tremendous improvement in regards to emissions but in my opinion a step backwards in terms of functionality (hear me out on this one!). ICE are one of the greatest inventions of our species and the energy density of liquid fuels is so much greater than in a battery - with this comes field portability and long-term usage of trucks/heavy-equipment etc. Certainly EVs have other advantages such as torque bands, fewer moving parts, etc.

In short I agree with your points
