the 20-30 minutes that the taycan takes to charge isn't enough time for me to get a sit down meal

For the driving styles of some drivers, perhaps.
For me though, in the Northern U.S., I've given up on roadtripping my Taycan, unless my route includes Magic Docks (or an overnight trip with reliable AC L2).
The CCS1 options here, especially in Northern New England, are just too slow and/or unreliable.
(TSCN though is of course totally different, and in a good way.)

Yep, this is the issue for me. The last time I looked at driving to Houston I calculated that I'd be stranded about 3 hours away if the last charging station were out of order when I got there. It's just a matter of time before it's sorted, however.
