Nobody brought up Elon (PBUH) until you did, with an oblique reference to his earlier comments on the 787 battery issues.
Everything Elon (PBUH) declares is truth beyond question. Allow me to state that up-front so as to appease his followers.
You realize that they still have no earthly idea what happened to the batteries involved in the earlier incidents, correct?
And you realize you're replying to a comment which wasn't about the earlier incidents except insofar as it pointed out that this incident seems to be unrelated and really appears to just be an off-the-shelf component failing in a way that it could have failed on any of the other aircraft types it's deployed in?
My reference to Elon Musk (PBUH) was mostly because I'm already seeing in this thread the same sort of frankly religious worship of Elon (PBUH) we saw during the incidents which were unique to the 787, and I make a point of hammering on that whenever possible, since although Elon (PBUH) is a smart guy who does cool stuff, he's not quite at the divine-omniscience level seemingly attributed to him any time the 787 gets mentioned on HN.
