Should you be able to keep the car even though you paid $10K less than what you were supposed to?
.....
I would hope that you would not attempt such. You would not get away with it. At least not in the U.S.
Here in the UK once a good is delivered, even if mis-priced, then under the sale of goods act it is contractually binding if both parties acted in good faith. (With additional rights granted for purchases where you have not had chance to physically examine the item you are purchasing, which was the case for us UK launch car owners as there were no stores at the time),
So yes you would and indeed should "get away with it." If it had been a physical item the laws are perfectly clear in this regard.
Now personally I really couldn't care about the chargers, I don't have 3 phase at my home so it makes zero difference to me. I only realised Tesla had done this through TMC, not from actual use. I am NOT after a freebie or stealing from Tesla.
What it did do was erode a little bit of trust in Tesla that a phone call would have sorted.
Let's put it down to a difference in cultural expectations from vendors and leave it at that.
