Exactly this.

I don't understand why people can be so hypocritical and do the electric car cause a huge disservice by this blind fanaticism. Gasoline cars have had decades of experience with countless recalls to perfect certain processes and implementations. Why are people expecting electric cars to not go through the same ? Are people really expecting Tesla to be the pinnacle of perfection on their first few tries ?

People are far more accommodating when you say "hey we aren't perfect but it IS safer than gasoline cars" rather than this "we are perfect and if you disagree with us you are wrong" attitude.
