So your car is already registered with your payment, which is what people are disagreeing with. The problem isn't the "app", it's the fact that you need to register with an additional payment processor rather than just tapping your card like everywhere else
Some people won't want to use an app, but the bigger problem is each charging company requires its own app. I don't think most people will mind setting an app once. They sure will mind setting an app every time they go to a charger and manage 10 accounts.
You have your car registered with Tesla one way or the other to accomplish that. I’m totally willing to do that for bpm CCS EV, but I guess this will just be a convenience for NACS.
NACS is actually just CCS over the Tesla physical form. Hopefully Tesla is mandating and certifying a specific subset of CCS for their Supercharger rollout of NACS.
I think there's a common lesson to CCS1/CCS2/CHAdeMO and HTTP 1.1: Any standards that avoids discussion of payment integration eventually succumbs to monopolistic substitutes.
