Musk paid huge money to get that thing. He paid multiple times the estimated price. The company is now in deep deep debt that was not nearly as large before - because company now owns the money Musk did not had.

He is not hand of the market. He is someone who made pretty bad business and has very little chance to fix.

And yes, there is likely someone doing UI decisions. Usually it is good idea to have special people good with visuals to make these artistic decisions.

The question is, how many people?

Neither I nor person I responded to knows. However, person I responded to took issue with mere existence of such position.

I know that that comment was just pure emotion and hate. But, the fact is, there is nothing wrong with having department for visuals. Or department for marketing or department for communication with advertisers or what have you.
