You do have a point. Bear in mind that almost all fire dept. vehicles have a Kussmaul auto eject shore power plug for 120V AC power. But those plugs are designed to be ejected, and the plug is cheap to replace if needed (compared to a charger connection). I had one on my previous truck and one of these day I will on the Lightning (for my Aux 12 V system - and maybe a battery maintainer for the vehicle 12 V battery).

Sounds like a good way to have cords end up flinging onto the ground and possible damaging the ends of the connector.
