A genuine question, I understand there is a difference in the heat/humidity in different parts of the world, but is California really not hot enough to suffer from a potential issue with rear AC?
I see you are EU, so may not be familiar with the dramatic summer climate variances in the U.S.
Hating to sweat and having lived in NY, Mn, Fl, Ia, Ne, Az, Ca, and now Tx, I have a clear understanding of the essential need for good A/C in the home and car.
The key factors that impact the functionality for adequate A/C is heat and humidity.
Overall, California is not very humid, despite being on the coast, since the Pacific is a cooler ocean compared to the Atlantic, and the climate is impacted by the prevailing W to E winds, the ocean, and the mountains.
Southern Ca on the coast is almost always a beautiful temperature (San Diego, many don't have A/C in homes, up through the Bay area), and the further north the cooler the summers are (San Francisco is delightful in the summer, mostly unless a heat wave) . Once you get inland however, the air dries and temperatures can soar as approaching Arizona and Utah. Death Valley, Ca is the hottest and driest location at times, then the other western states.
Florida is completely different, for the southern peninsula has very hot and humid summers where the A/C is more challenged for cooling.
The rest of the U.S. also has significant summer heat variations, as the upper midwest (ie - Omaha, Neb) can be just as hot and humid as southern Florida.
The southeast U.S. is reliably hot and humid in the summer, as can be parts of the Northeast
A Model X with all the overhead glass in the summer can reach temps of over 140 deg F or 60 deg C, so forgetting to pre-cool can be a miserable environment to get into, and the ability to cool off the cabin off quickly depends on cooling capacity of the compressor and airflow.
Plus for humans to cool, the better airflow of cool air, the more comfortable as evaporating sweat helps to cool..
Science lecture over...more than you probably cared to know, but some insight to how Tesla may have missed a significant detail when removing the 2nd fan.
