I may be missing something obvious here, but I have a question regarding disconnecting means for EVSE. Its a 60 amp 240 volt charger, fastened in place. 625.43 reads I don't need a disconnecting means because it's not more than 60 amps. 625.44(B) reads I need a receptacle outlet. Wouldn't the receptacle outlet be considered a disconnecting means?

A receptacle is only required for fast interchange of equipment. The section below states

(C) Fixed Equipment. All other equipment shall be permanently
wired and fixed in place to the supporting surface.
