Not driving a car for long periods of time is bad for the car. That means that they would replace it after a few years, and still have two cars, instead of keeping just the one. It takes a lot of resources to build a car, even more so for EVs.

While kinda true, there is general maintenance for such situations. Also nothing stopping you from driving it around the block once a month.
