Looking at the problems Twitter has, why does anyone think Musk can even solve one?

He's solved the full self driving problem. He has more time on has hands...

Yeah, sure. He also solved "traffic"[^1].

Singapore solved traffic with congestion pricing. Turns out, people have an endless desire to wastefully use free stuff.

The Tesla engineers have solved 95% of the self-driving problems, perhaps. The remaining 5% is, of course, much harder to solve

The infamous 90/90 rule:

> The first 90 percent of the code accounts for the first 90 percent of the development time. The remaining 10 percent of the code accounts for the other 90 percent of the development time.

They don’t have a self driving product at all. They have a couple variations of a level-2 driver assist product.

If the remaining 5% is much harder, wouldn't that mean they haven't really solved 95% of the problem?

Good point, I was thinking about 95% of the problem in terms of time spent on the road

Pareto principle sort of thing.

He said "full self driving" which is a Tesla marketing term that could mean absolutely anything.
