Something I keep turning over: Tesla won the North American charging standard war by open-sourcing its connector spec. Every major OEM adopted NACS within 12 months. CCS1 had regulatory backing, NEVI support, and consortium momentum — and still lost to one company deciding to publish its hardware design for free. There's a broader lesson about network effects versus committee processes that extends well beyond EVs.
