we’re settling on the underlying CCS technology being the standard

Given how many manufacturers have declared they're moving to NACS it doesn't sound like CCS will be the standard I don't think ?

Ford, General Motors, Mercedes-Benz, Nissan, Polestar, Rivian, and Volvo have signed up.

CCS communication protocol not the port itself. Tesla only used a proprietary communication protocol, now they also support CCS communication protocol. Basically means all you need is an adaptor and everything should be interoperable.

Technology Connections just made a whole video about this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZJOfyMCEzjQ
