My point is that wouldn't work, unless the car was in park. A Tesla will simply refuse to move if a charger is connected

    That's not a charger though. EVs can't take the direct power from a generator. It needs to communicate with a base. So that "cable" is impossible and is a joke.

    Doesn't matter. The car knows something's plugged in, even if it can't talk to it

    You 100% can plug in an unpowered mobile connector and drive away. If it's not actually on a circuit, it does not detect it, does not light up, and does not lock the charger (the plastic notch underneath).
