The assembly line gives the company the Tech Aura which gets them funded.

It's not impossible and there are some advantages. I watched an entire apartment building in Oakland get assembled in like two weeks. The modular pieces were built at Factory OS in Vallejo and trucked in.

You’ve definitely got a point here, but I think you could announce that strategy and still spin some MVP/MLP/PMF jargon to explain why you’re slow-rolling the factory while building the first dozen units.

They had to believe 100% in the assembly-line strategy, in order to work on this in the first place, and to sell it to investors.
