Is the implication here stock options are only offered to labor when its in a weak bargaining position because otherwise they could be demanding something more valuable?

Stock options are offered to people who are ready, willing and able to work harder or smarter in response to potential ownership. These are INDIVIDUAL contributions.
When a direct relationship exists between the parties, this is a possibility. When there is a third party dictating what happens, this is much less realistic.

Tesla is a publicly traded company. It's relatively easy to put a market value on their stock options.

Like twice as many stock options? I'm a bit confused. Stock options are fungible. You can make granting of stock options worth arbitrary many dollars, by eg increasing the volume or lowering the strike price etc.
