* If 50% will use it, then it still might be a good buy at a low enough price.
* The desirable, safe, &c locations for fueling cars are for the most part already occupied by gas stations, so it might be that there are only a few locations available that 100% will use. It is rational to obtain those few and then add locations that 50% will use to reduce load on the locations that 100% will use.
The idea that women in the room would have changed this is not plausible, because the constraints are not any different for women planners in this situation than for men planners.
