Its honestly baffling how out of porch Tesla has fallen. I remember the times around when Model S first came out, the security of the car was one of the biggest praises it received. It excelled in crash tests, I don't know if this is still the case, but recently it seems like the car wants to kill you so it can show the developers which process needs improvement.
"it is all about deleting just a bit more than you feel comfortable with"
EVs (ought to) do well because they are heavy, their center of mass is very low (because the batteries are dense and the battery pack is huge, to get the range and redundancy / current distribution), and no engine in the front, so the whole compartment can act as a big crumple zone.
If Musk didn’t buy Twitter and get tech groupthink subscriber’s undergarments in a twist then Tesla would still be a tech darling. His antics on social media is doing more damage to Tesla’s brand than anything else.
Alternatively, his attention being elsewhere has removed the reality-distortion field around Tesla and they are now being treated as other companies would.
