Yeah, but if only 1% of those 500 survive and if 10% of those 500 companies ever came up with a good idea or design, China is set for world domination.

(Tesla was on front page the other day for burning cars, so move fast and break things is a thing here too)

Fortunately our legacy automakers have solved that problem. I haven't seen a story on HN about any of them catching on fire.
