If they are slow chargers you would be right that they would be good for emergency use only. I didn't ask what speed chargers they were installing or how many would be available to the public, and if public meant any EV or only Fords. It's pretty clear that at least some chargers at EV Ford dealership chargers will be open to all Ford customers, and that those will be level 3 fast chargers, not the slower speed L2 you are claiming. Personally, I don't really care if they open them up to other brands or only Ford customers.I doubt there's gonna be many dealerships that have DCFC chargers, especially open to the public. More likely L2. If any at all open to the public rather than just for their internal use, or reserved for their customers.
And in the broader sense, most of the people that need public charging will be road trippers. (Locals will typically be charging at home or work.) And road trippers typically need a full (or near-full) charge at each stop along their route.
