I had a feeling more reasonable fees would be implemented.
Uh huh, real f’n bargain

Everybody was so happy with the unnecessary fee legislators were merely emboldened to jack up the price again to test the waters.

Unless there is real opposition to any fee until there is an actual funding issue due to a large percentage of cars being BEVS these taxes will be set as high as they can get away with to simply deflate EV demand
