That being said, a 30 amp charger would really be useful for opportunity charging or if I had a really tight off peak window
You mean a 30A EVSE, of course, and as others have said, it buys you nothing at all with the current LEAF, which has a 3.3 kW (16A) charger. The only argument for it is that it might give you faster charging sometime in the future when you get a different car.
In general, "opportunity charging" refers to charging away from home, when you pop into a mall, restaurant, theater, or whatever, for a while. Obviously a 30A EVSE at home is of no use for that, though a 6.6 kW charger in the car would be. I'm sure there are a few people who make long trips (>50 miles) in the morning, and again in the afternoon, and plan to get a different EV so they will have time to recharge at home in between, but there can't be many of those.
So for 99% of all LEAF owners the only argument for a 30A EVSE would seem to be that they might someday have an EV with a faster charger,
and might be on an electric plan with a very short off-peak period,
and drive more miles per day than will fit within that short period. You need to ask yourself if you meet all three of those criteria. And if the extra cost now for something that
might save a little money some time in the future is worth it.
