Yes, I understand that. I feel like you didn't read what I wrote or the article. Like I just said, this tax credit will not have any meaningful impact in EV adoption because it doesn't address current adoption hesitation, partly because it's small, and partly because it only covers a very small and soon to be smaller segment of EVs and is difficult to qualify for. It's covered in the article.

Appeal doesn't matter, actual feasibility matters. For a large swath of the population, electric vehicles are completely out of the question regardless of how appealing they might be. You can't just throw a charger onto the side of your rented apartment and drag a cord 200 feet across a parking lot to your space. Hell, half of the downtown in my city is all street parking to begin with. Tax credits against the sticker price aren't going to have any meaningful impact on adoption. And as the article pointed out, your EV probably won't even count for the tax credit because of a bunch of random arbitrary nonsense anyway.
