If you disagree, simply take a walk around a town square during a busy event and take inventory. The conclusion will be definitive.
What people drive is based on what they bought. What they bought was based on:
- what was available - electric carts have only become widely available in the last few years
- what was popular - your point about what they see in the squares
- the level of misinformation - contrary to what we are likely to see in this thread, electric carts are not exploding daily throughout the Villages
- practical considerations - over 50 miles per day, no convenient access to a gas station, noise level, features, etc.

"Popular" is not the same as "best." Using your criteria, if I walked around the squares I would definitively conclude that City Fire was the best restaurant and Michelob Ultra, Miller Light, and Yuengling were the best beers.

Confirmation bias is real; I can find any number of articles that say so.
