...And how many times they can repeat that feat. A Leaf, for instance, can do it only once, and then has to wait for the thermal mass to cool back down, which can take all day (or never, if it's hot out).

If you only ever charge your Leaf from a standard wall socket, it never gets hot.

FYI, I have only charged from a 7kW Level 1 and a 110 outlet with the Leaf. Never used the CHADEMO I made sure to get...
But someday, I hope to use that pack as a mobile emergency backup... as soon as I find a bi-directional Chademo charger/load inverter type product.
