It's a red herring designed to distract from the fact they missed ad revenue estimates by $800M.

Lol at getting downvoted. They missed on revenue and down -5% after hours. This is a fact, not an opinion.

20% YoY is still a massive growth, just because Wall Street always expects 24% or more doesn't make it any less impressive.

I guess, but TSLA revenues were only up 3% YOY and that stock has gone hyperbolic.
