I actually thought he was underpromising, and that Tesla would surprise the world by blowing past 5K weeks early. That they pulled out all the stops in the final weeks and still missed the deadline feels like a bad sign.

It's not the one time performance that matters, it's the rate of flow as time continues.

Also recall that band //width// can be increased for a cost while latency has hard upper bounds.

For anyone complaining about profit margins, think per unit profits rather than hitting some round base10 number.
