It might be because Tesla also uses CAN bus, whereas the parent post implies that only "other automakers" do it.

Plus, CAN bus is just layer 2/3, you could build secure extensions on top of it, but I agree it is insecure by default.

That's wasn't what I intended to imply. Rather that it's not like other manufacturers found the secret recipe and we should somehow feel safer in their cars. Added an "also" for clarity.
