Here's the biggest and most important reason (besides the obvious ones like grids, energy, etc.): most people >cannot< afford an EV compared to say, a SH good(and often better) vehicle. EVs are not even competitive to their equivalent fossil-based cars that are new.
Idealists should often take their heads out of their asses and understand most people don't have their privilege, ironically the most privileged ones screech about privilege while ignoring their own. Go ahead and tell developing countries to switch to EV-only, setting them back at least 10 years in terms of industry and economic growth.
