It's not that hard to build infrastructure to support EVs, since electricity already is everywhere in a city.
Just saying "they can" doesn't make it so. I've relied on on-street parking before, as have most of the people I know. None of them would consider running a cable from their apartment to the curb to charge their car to be a practical solution, which is why the solution is for cities to make public chargers ubiquitous (see the previous comment).
Because they can't do everything that a standard car can do.

I don't believe anyone is arguing otherwise. But if you're arguing that having a less capable vehicle that encourages less driving is a good thing, I'd point out that a) the market is unlikely to accept that, and b) this is mostly a city design problem that is orthogonal to the type of car you drive.
