It just seems like you'd almost always be net positive even if you're plugged in around 8 hours a day during sleep.

Assuming a ~300-400km total range, I would think the vast majority of use cases would make it so that you would be net positive over a week. I can't imagine too many people driving 100km a day every day.
For sure, as far as daily goes. But if you want to do a weekend trip or something? Especially if you work Friday then want to take off after a few hours. I think for most people the 50A charger would be the minimum without getting into inconveniences at some point. I'll be running one 50A on the wall by the panel, so it will only be about 20 feet of wire.
