in a perfect world cars would disappear all together I agree. But for the short term we need to not let perfect be the enemy of good. People aren’t giving up their cars anytime soon, but maybe we can shepherd them into a slightly less shitty version for the time being. Plus having EVs and more solar on roofs will speed up our ability to reduce our coal addiction, which right now is the biggest threat to humanity.

Hopefully we’ll see the transition largely away from cars in time with better public infrastructure. it’s a complex problem.
