gas cars generaly, from what I've been told, don't use said gas while beeing shut off to keep the car in operational condition. But maybe yours is different.

While the post above yours is a bit of a hot take, the better answer is because it only takes 5 or 10 minutes to refuel your car. Which is why it would be a lot more difficult to use an EV if you couldn't charge it at home.
