Generally, doing open-heart surgery on a car requires a clean environment, a careful mechanic, and lots of attention to detail. A subterranean automated wrench platform is a whole 'nother thing.

There are many words I'd use to describe an auto-shop. Clean is not among them.

A good shop is clean. Not hospital room clean, not eat-off-the-floor clean, but clean. Floors swept and rinsed, fluids captured in drain pains, etc.

This changing station could well be inside such a tidy and enclosed area at the Tesla Station.

Its supposed to be drive-thru. If its not, then add opening the garage door (one coming, one going) and waiting in line to the supposed 90-second swap time.

These are literally all engineering problems that can and have been solved. You have no idea what you're talking about as it applies to this situation.

I am an engineer, and I am a driver. What else do I need to be?

An engineer at Tesla, who has actually worked on the problem, rather than someone who believes he has enough information to make a judgement on a problem which you have not studied or thought about for more than a few minutes. /internetproblems

I'm out, this argument is pointless.
