Anyway now that we got this cleared up, I was talking to a LEAFer while charging yesterday and he was complaining about the length of the EA cables and wished he had his charge port in the nose like the Chevy Bolt did...
Do you mean the Leaf driver wished his Bolt had the inlet in the nose?
Here's another examples of lunacy due to the use of wrong units. The OP of https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/model-3-to-have-60kw-supercharging.84297/ (Reeler) didn't know WTF he was talking about, it seems. Folks were getting really annoyed:

This is in response to battery sizes (in kWh) and different pricing tiers depending on charge rate (in kW): https://www.tesla.com/support/supercharging (excerpt below). I don't know if he's normally this ignorant or if he was just trolling people.
Where possible, owners are billed per kWh (kilowatt-hour), which is the most fair and simple method. In other areas, we bill for the service per minute.
When billing per minute, there are two tiers to account for changes in charging speeds, called “tier 1” and “tier 2”.
Tier 1 applies while cars are charging at or below 60 kW and tier 2 applies while cars are charging above 60 kW. Tier 1 is half the cost of tier 2.
Tier 1 also applies anytime your vehicle is sharing Supercharger power with another car.
