These are good points. We already have residential chargers which coordinate to share power, so it's very likely that any business-grade charger will have similar capabilities.

I do think swapping batteries is unlikely, however. It adds a lot of complexity, and if the typical route is only 25 miles long then a battery swap is overkill.
