This isn't what the thread is really about but there are some cases where leasing is better financially, like when you will be using the vechcile for buissness and like you said when you don't plan on keeping the car long term anyway. Also leasing EVs is usually a much better deal than purchasing. (Usually, I was considering the bolt and those lease terms arent very attractive)
We all know what's the BEST financial decision though...buy a cheap beater or just ride your bike everywhere.
EV's are a WHOLE other can of worms, especially in California. They practically pay YOU to lease or buy an EV. My DS and DIL have a Fiat 500E. New, before tax incentives and other credits, a $32,000 car. Theirs is a 2016 lease return, 25,000 miles $8,000 still under factory warranty They get absolutely no tax credits or other credits because they bought it used. But both work in the public sector, and get free charging at work. They figure if they can get 5 years out of it, they can walk away and be money ahead.
