Wouldn’t that signal competence? He has set up an amazing organization furthering his ultimate goal(colonizing space). Now he can waste his free time on Twitter, just like everybody else

I agree; he's chosen good people, and he's set an ethos. It's not just luck.

But "wasting his time on Twitter" cost him $44Bn, and landed him with serious problems he can do without. People who control that much money don't discuss their financial plans on Twitter for lulz, because it's irresponsible.
