I'm satisfied with the flat fee system. The cost difference is at most $150 per car per year, which is not much to argue over. It is more like eating into the savings from switching from gas to electricity, rather than an additional burden.
The premise of being taxed by mile driven is arguable. People benefit from roads even when they do not drive. AFAIU light passenger traffic has little bearing on the resultant maintenance costs, that most wear comes from heavy trucks.
I do not want separate meters complicating EV charging and accounting.
