There’s no guarantee that giving him $50 billion won’t still end up in him losing interest anyhow. This approach seems like giving a hostage taker a ransom.

No but there's also no guarantee that anyone you pay a salary to will continue to do a good job, in both cases it's a judgement call of whether the risk is worth it. I personally think anyone earning that much is obscene, and that Musk isn't useful to Tesla any more, but my opinion doesn't disprove their judgement that it's worth paying him.
