Agreed but imho it's not just about how long it is for one person. If a significant amount of people start needing to charge we are going to need more throughput at charging stations.
Long congestion delays could occur trying to charge on long trips during holidays. Daily driving is less of a problem since most people can charge at home. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OfUJCWRFjig
In Finland McDonalds has been installing 350kW chargers at their locations for a few years now.
It's pretty much the perfect ___location, the car usually charges faster than you can wolf down your Big Mac and fries.
The big super market chains are the other big player, they're taking customers from (overpriced) gas stations. It's usually a 5-10 minute detour to get to the local mega-mart and they have cafes and restaurants in there anyway - without the gas station markup.

And with good reason, there aren't many power grids particularly along long roads where you can simply plug in more than half a megawatt of consistent (!) load and everything continues to work as-is.
The sorry state of many power grids is keeping actually smart load management, EV, solar/wind/other renewable power generation and wildfire safety back so hard it hurts.
I'm not sure that is really a problem of 'sorry state of power grid'. Its more like 'rapidly changing requirements'.
5 years ago, most rural lines were supporting homes and businesses with 200amp panels (and oversubscribed, since not everyone pulls all those amps at the same time). Complaining the grid isn't ready is like putting a gas power plant in the middle of no-where, and complaining that the only nearby gas main between two towns is too small to run the 700MW power plant.
Tesla can work around this by larger battery banks, or solar arrays to help recharge the battery bank faster. (they own companies that produce both). And in spots where they often can't keep up with demand, work with the power companies to get more power delivered.
