They are quite clearly snubbing CA with deliveries.
CA accounted for a more than a third of all invites on 2/22. "The spreadsheet" has 33 recorded VINs in the 2/22 group, and none of them in California. It's statistically impossible to have happened by accident.
Some configurations are just backlogged (e.g. almost no one who configured a white/aero in February anywhere in the country got their VINs yet), but, in others, deliveries are deliberately being routed anywhere but CA.
There may be something to the theory about maximizing Q1 deliveries.
CA isn't getting snubbed. We will get our VINs in the next week or so, because it takes less than a week to deliver to a CA buyer after they get their VIN. They do this to max out quarterly deliveries. Go read the investor forum and you'll see Tesla has been doing this for a long time.
