Currently I only have EA and ChargePoint DCFC in my area. ChargePoint maxes at 50 kWh. EA maxes at 350 kWh. I have tried both with my Mach-E.

The Mach-E on ChargePoint maxes out the 55 kWh rating from 10%-80% and takes 2 hours to charge. On EA chargers, usually 150 kWh chargers, it pulls 160 kWh from 20%-40% then slows to 110 kWh to 60%. It lowers again to 100 kWh to 75%. And again down to 90 kWh until 80%.

Performance on the 350 kWh EA chargers are about the same but not all work as well with the software in the Mach-E. The 150 kWh Signet and ABB chargers from EA for me have been solid performers.

I was never able to attain anything more than 45-50 kWH for more than 2-3 minutes at any of the EA's chargers. Typically from 25% to 80% it would take me about 48-56 minutes.
Did you call EA and have them reboot the chargers?

No time for that during road trips ... I charge at whatever I can find, preferably EA 150 kW ones, charge to 80% and run .... !!!

I also did not see any advantage on EA's 350 kW chargers.
