I'd claim it's pragmatic too - but only if you have ability to charge at home AND you have an ICE car as well (maybe). Halving the cost of commute is highly pragmatic!
This applies to something like half the population right now (in the US). And we're on the path to alleviate issues for the other half of the population in the next few to several years.
The other major issue (which is probably the bigger one) is that car manufacturers other than Tesla can't seem to actually get out enough cars to do anything other than supply California and maybe NY. Teslas are expensive and have a litany of quality issues that push "regulars" away from them. Once Hyundai has an electric that has inventory nationwide at a reasonable price, then we have a revolutionary orderly transition on our hands.
