Nah, it's just that as long as the lithium strip mining and processing doesn't happen in the US it isn't a environmental disaster to some people. As long as said person has a solar panel on THEIR house, they all must be able to charge with a panel. The people who think EVs are green only think so because the EV doesn't have an exhaust pipe. I could probably convince them my big Dodge V8 SUV is green by dumping the exhaust underneath, then pointing out that with no exhaust pipe it must be green.
