If all it takes is "an adult who can design and manufacture commodity things efficiently", it should be pretty easy to set up some competition for Tesla with a team of competent "adults", right?

He is talking about a very specific issue not about telsa engineering as a whole. The issue is wasting over-engineering small irrelevant stuff that provide no real benefit.
He is criticizing a part of Tesla not Tesla as a whole. A company can do many great things and can still be crap in some others.

The hard part is finding "investors" who are happy to keep buying your bonds while you run a massive cash burn. Anyone can run a "successful" business as long as the supply of other people's money holds out.
