Pretty much all of it. You're saying the user mis-interpreted it (the equivalent of "you're holding it wrong"), and are touting your interpretation as fact. Tone/intent of the email was crystal clear - got too many orders, yours is delayed. No reasonable person would look at that email and think "got too many orders, but good news, yours is coming next month!". If Tesla's intent was to send a positive message to the June people, then they could've done so. They didn't.
Now, in classic Tesla style, the message for some folks is not matching execution. Absolutely no surprise there. But those are different things. So...I disagree with your interpretation of Tesla's message.
Fair enough.
Agree that Tesla message is poorly worded.
I do see other posters that did interpreted it positively and are happier for it.
How do you account for 30% of June emails having a VIN by the following day?
My glass half full attitude read the same email as we got too many orders, "expect yours in June."
Tone and intent also clear to me - but not the same tone and intent you got.
Now a pessimist's perception of the same email would read it as we got too many orders, therefore we are "delaying" yours to June. The fact of the matter is if you got your VIN on the same day as that email, you will get your car in June. There was no delay and there was no mention of any delay in the email.
Is it possible that the "message for some folks is not matching execution" is caused by the mis-interpretation of the message? If you take a step back and, just for a second, take an alternate interpretation of the message, than perhaps Tesla message is perfectly congruent with their execution.
Imagine a computer algorithm that spit out emails to two group of people. One group get the '"expect delivery in June" and one group get the "expect delivery in July." That is all it is designed to do. Now wether you interpret the June letter as a "delay" or not is your interpretation. The computer's purpose is only to notify. Tone and intent is what you interjected.
