I agree and add to the sentence in bold...
It is hard to know how folks run out of 'fuel'. I can only guess that they are ignorant to the state of charge of the pack and the meaning. Even if there was user error, e.g. not plugging in, someone who knows the 'fuel' level in the pack would see the error long before being stranded.
The only analogy I can think of is driving a car without a gas gauge. You cannot see in the tank, you fill it up once a week, but you never know how much fuel is in the tank. One week you drive it too far and oops...
Driving an electric cart (or any vehicle) around without a way to see the 'fuel' left in the pack is asking for trouble.
