Yes, exactly. If I HAD to, I could figure it out. I admit to being spoiled and don't WANT to.

Yep. And I think this is where looking at "range anxiety" in the context of a road trip misses the boat. IMHO, range anxiety isn't about long trips, about whether I can drive from Miami to Cleveland. That's easy to manage, and only happens a few times a year. Instead, range anxiety is about the daily/weekly effort to make sure you don't get too low on fuel in a way that screws up your day. Combine that with the much longer fill-up, and people stress.

If an average person drives 40 miles per day and has an ICE with a range of about 400 miles (which will vary from car to car, but is the average), then they've got 10 days' worth of fuel. They don't want to start a morning with only that days' fuel in the tank - they'll run out - so they'll fill up at least when they're down to two days left. Which is every eight days or so (which is also about the average, a weekly fill-up). But if they're in an EV with 300 miles of range or less, they get down to a low tank more frequently - every five or six days.

The lower range/smaller tank means you're getting to a "low fuel" situation more frequently. Combine that with the much, much longer time to add fuel, and you dramatically ramp up the chances of encountering a problem in your day-to-day. IMHO, that's the issue. Not planning out road trips where finding a twenty-minute stop in a five hour drive is relatively easy, but waking up in the morning and realizing you're short on electrons and you don't have an extra twenty minutes in that day's schedule to fix that.

Again, with meticulous planning and careful attention to charging (much easier if you can home charge), you can avoid that. But you have to be willing to take on that mental burden of managing your fuel levels in a way that you generally don't have to with ICE cars. And that's the range anxiety - not the 400-mile drive for your family vacation.
