I suspect the answer could be yes and still be what Elon wants. Elon does something spectacularly unpopular then throws this poll up. While I don't think this is 4d chess I think this might be on purpose. I suspect he wants out and to save face publicly. This way he can claim to his supporter that he is the good guy and simply abiding by the will of the people. Not that he got in over his head and had to bail before drowning.
