I drive once a week, if that.
I go to Costco once a month, if that.
Costco has Tier 1 gas at the best price and no lines nowadays.
Costco is 40 miles away, but the gas stations are almost as far.
I have the room for storage - most people do not.
I have the height for fast flow - most people do not.
I have a dozen gas cans - most people do not.
I have four hoses - most people do not.
I have the modified funnel - most people do not.

In short, most people don't have the same situation that I have.
I've only been refueling for about 20 years.

Before that, I did what you do so I know the difference.

It's like mounting tires at home (which is so easy, it's not funny).
Anything who hasn't done it doesn't know what they're talking about.

Refueling is so trivially easy, that it's easier than going to the gas
station, IMHO. But I have the system down to a science where most people
probably are afraid of siphoning or they'd try to pour the gas using those
useless spouts, for example.

So they don't know what they're talking about.
I do.
