I think you and many others are overstating the case for the rate of disappearance
of ICE( Internal Combustion Engine) cars going forward. The world has one billion ICE cars and 16 million EV cars. The electric grid is barely holding its own today against growing demand for electricity( bit coin mining and EV car charging being big users).

Ethanol is a very clean burning fuel for ICE vehicles.

Without nuclear fuel powered electric generation, the grid will suffer outages and brownouts like never before.

So a vote for EV's is inescapably a vote for many, many more nuclear plants in the world. And I, personally, am more than okay with that. The question is how much support is there for nuclear power and just how long would it take to make the transition ? Solar and wind power are remarkably unreliable and inefficient. Maybe, innovations such as wave surge generators and geothermal can help a lot.

Bottom line, gasoline is here to stay for a long time. To improve emissions, ethanol is a vital additive/substitution. Thus the hyperbole around EV's is just that and only that. EV's in meaningful numbers in the foreseeable/achievable future exist only in the meta world of certain politicians and people who elect them.
