@laprice @Wifiwits @LilahTovMoon Given all the things I heard about Musk I believe there simply ain't enough people that prevent him from doing nonsense at Tesla, like there are at SpaceX. "Drive-by-wire" also sounds like he saw some documentary about how Fly-by-wire made fighting jets more cool and suddenly wanted that for cars.
I don't think there's some bigger plan aside from what his strategists and lawyers come up with after the fact. After all we all know he's the opposite of a genius.
