They both use the same backhaul to the substation.

Quite. So makes no difference if charged on a driveway or on the street.

It makes a huge difference because the on-street charging points are
leeching off the 2kW/premises average for the housing.

Not very many on-street chargers would melt the cabling.

Note that it's also not possible for too many of the houses to also
suddenly start doubling their average consumption by having an
off-street charger.
