I am not wrong!! Are you nuts? You NEVER mention more than a 60 amp breaker for residential uses. Are you kidding?
(you've been around too many of those mini mansions or something - crossposted to sci.electronics.repair)

Commom uses for 60 A breakers:

a) Sub panels to shops, kitchens (electric), hot tubs and pool heaters (electric)
b) Some electric stoves.
c) Pottery kilns

Increasingly common uses for 100A breakers:

a) Class IV car chargers - Tesla, Rivian et. al.
b) Sub panels in larger houses, or MiL suites.

So a 60A breaker upgrade is needed for a car charging station?

For mine I have a 50 amp. If you have a Rivian, like my son has, a 60
amp would be preferable.
