Yep, HN folks often live in a bubble (myself included).

What bubble do I live in?

I quoted the OP who said "as the shakeup due to EVs begins, even loyal consumers will be considering other makes" implying that people who buy more and more EVs will not buy a GM due to lack of Carplay. I replied that EV buyers seem to not care as the brand (Tesla) with 2/3 of the EV market does NOT do Carplay and it seems to not have a negative effect on EV sales for said brand.

I neither endorsed Tesla nor Carplay-less cars nor pretended 100% of people buy EVs. So why do you call me out for "living in a bubble"?
