I'll just add one thing. It's reasonable to criticize musk for 'not knowing things outside of his domain'. But claiming that musk knows nothing about the cost of building metal tubes, is really stupid. It's certainly possible musk is fudging the numerical values.

Building metal tubes is one thing. Actually getting permission from abutters to install those metal tubes on/near their property and then dealing with the varying field conditions is a whole 'nother problem.
