It makes no sense to replace 75% of the infrastructure.
To be fair, they're not all gonna be suddenly replaced. The manufacturers are going to start producing cars in 2025, and it'll be a fair few years on top of that before the majority of cars on the road are actually using NACS plugs, long enough that a good chunk of the infrastructure will have to be replaced or modified anyways.
While Tesla should've just backed down and adopt the existing standard like in other markets, I don't think this is the worst thing in the world.
Replacement happens at the stall level, not location level. There are a lot more NACS stalls than CCS.
