You might explain your reasoning behind that rather illogical comment.
Musk doesn't build cars for customers, he builds them for himself. If you
happen to like what he likes, great. Otherwise, tough.
Again, I can not see any reasoning on your part. The market is clearly
deciding whether cost effective and minimalist controls will prevail.
Or not. Someone can remind me what fraction of the market Tesla
commands. There are plenty of inferior EVs out there that are offering
all the buttons, stalks, switches, etc that mimic obsolete cars and
satisfies those with such fetishes.
That's been working surprisingly well for him, but that was before the
unfolding "Cybertruck" disaster. That hideous, awkward, grossly inefficient
lump belongs in a dystopian SF film, not on the road. If he stubbornly
carries on with it, it will be Tesla's undoing.
I see John did a fine job of refuting the above.
