For now, sure. Car makers want to support the connector that has the most chargers out there. The competition won't go away, though. Most seem to agree that CCS2 is a superior connector to both CCS1 and NACS. What it amounts to is that EV owners will just have to have adapters in their car. Tesla's move to NACS at least makes that possible (as the connectors will at least all share a communication protocol, as far as I understand).
