I don't think they would say that if it was not the case: Quite the opposite, I'd say as they would be very vocal about the EV thing being a con. I think they looked at their circumstances and made their choice; they're coming on the thread to say it worked for them.
Your opinion is not controversial when you say it doesn't make sense for you.
It is more so when you attack EVs in general when you say they are poor value for money. I personally do not "get" the existence of hybrids (as opposed to plug-in hybrids), as I doubt using petrol to charge the battery that will drive your vehicle a few miles is energy efficient, but for city centre use it can be an advantage. It also seems that they can have expensive issues, just like many ICE cars.
Anyway, this is the debate on another thread, this one is about the cyber truck and my opinion is that it is rather shit.
