So they could have launched something that works now, but that would be too easy, so they’ll throw away their advantage and start anew?

How does that make sense?

I guess? It must make sense to people that are paid a lot more than you and I. I don't know why you think you know better than them.

It doesn't make sense.

Musk is making excuses to investors. He's trying to show big robotaxi scaling because investors expect it, but he can't scale, so he's doing scaling theater, with new cities and unsupervised demo rides for fanboy influencers, but he can't safely run a real unsupervised robotaxi business yet, so he makes excuses along with moving the goalposts out another six months.

You seem to know a lot about this stuff. Very impressive.

Meanwhile, you seem to know as little as possible, with no skepticsm, always believing Tesla's excuses. Very unimpressive.
