You may find that timeline to be optimistic. We shall see.

The other things that need to fall into place are:

- Batteries capable of DC charging hundreds of cycles with acceptable (10%-ish) loss in capacity
- DC charging infrastructure that supports your 5-10 minute charge times at all or at least most locations

All of that might be coming faster than hydrogen infrastructure, but plenty of wise people with deep pockets don't necessarily think so. If you truly believe you've outsmarted them, you can, as I say, play the game and win big.
