    The comment I was replying to suggested stopping catering to rural populations. I was trying to respond to that, as having roads is one of the main ways of catering for them. I suppose they could be talking about this like subsidies to fossil fuels, but that doesn't really address the earlier assertion that EVs are a stop gap.
