Big oil knows there is more oil in the ground than humans will continue in having interest in burning soon.
Even if you only care for yourself and not beyond this, be aware that no ICE starts combustion with a functioning catalyst system, it requires the active surfaces of the catalyst to achieve a minimum surface thermal energy to function. As a result of this, all existing ICEs (unless someone knows of any exception to share) on startup have to spray incombusted and partially combusted known carcinogenic and mutagenic solvent compounds including benzene and much more.
Things that I can't even order from lab suppliers to be shipped into California because they are considered too bio-hazardous of solvents even for accredited labs with fume hood scrubber systems doing RnD. Yet when its in gasoline or partially burned components of it, every time you start your car you're spraying this into the air around you or garage around you that you're breathing. If you're kid is walking behind your exhaust pipe and you cold start a car, maybe this acute exposure event may mean learning to enjoy the Leukemia treatment process with your kid.

Doesn't matter if your have a hybrid or PHEV or whatever, when it starts its spitting these known hazardous chemicals in known to be active dosage levels as a part of normal use. If you have a vehicle with a pure electric mode to use for leaving the driveway and getting some favorable wind to avoid poisoning yourself from the pre-catalyist-function solvent vapour spray on cold starting, you still can get cancers added to your life experiences to enjoy from breathing benzene-compound vapours while refueling.

At some point humans will conclude adding the un-needed torturous cancer death causing spray process and use sane options like EVs and LEVs with solar panels charging them.
Before this happens, big oil has only incentives to do everything possible to move as much of the product as they have to sell for this short transition period into EV market dominance where it's still socially acceptable to poison yourself the people around your vehicle during operation and refueling.
