15psi is a very small pressure difference and is trivial to seal against. The oil pressure in a car is 5x that and the seals involved deal with way more rotations over their lives.

None of that makes any sense. Iridium was a private company between 1999 and 2008. You could not buy shares in 2007.
It IPO'd in 2008 for $9 per share and has only gone up from there to $60 today.

Iridium went bankrupt 23 years ago, before Clinton was impeached, while Yeltsin was still in power in Russia, before Lil Nas X was born, and before we saw dead people in the Sixth Sense.

"Supercharger" is a Tesla trademarked term. It always means a Tesla charger. The term you are looking for that is used exclusively in the industry is DC Fast Charger (DCFC).

Yes, they have one now, in exceedingly limited supply. 10 years after Tesla, who has now shipped 3M vehicles, so maybe they aren't experts on batteries yet??

You took Subaru/Toyota training and are sure Kia, Hyundai, Chevy, and Ford all recommend sticking to "slow charging to avoid "rapid degradation"?
Citation needed. What defines "fast charging?" What defines "rapid degradation?"
Are you aware Federal Law requires 8 years/100K mile battery warranties with minimal degradation?
The reason they don't want you to DCFC is they don't want you to realize how minimal the support for DCFC is right now if you don't have a Tesla.

Your Subaru / Toyota EV training told you to tell customers to avoid Tesla Superchargers?
The Toyota that famously has avoided EV's as long as they can and don't have ANY right now? Same with Subaru?
Consider your source. Anyone that refers to Generic DC Fast Charging as "superchargers" is not an expert on EV's.
Plenty of people with Teslas have supercharged exclusively and have data. Does it degrade? Yes. Is it "rapidly"? Not at all- some of these cars have 200K miles on them and still have 80%+ capacity.

Space is zero psi Earth is 14.7 psi at sea level That is all there is. The difference is 15psi.
