Yep, precisely. This loophole is probably delaying "original" MYP orders by 4-6 weeks at minimum. Even if you get a VIN, there is a possibility that it gets usurped by someone with an older LR order that decided to switch.

I am so sick of these LR -> P swappers taking priority, if you change your mind you need to go to the back of the line. The VIN assignment algorithm is just broken and the insane demand is exacerbating this fact. I have seen people with my exact build get a VIN one week after swapping and I just get kicked down the line because of them.

Except it's not really fair at all. I had sold my car because they had told me delivery was imminent. Now we're here 3 months later with no car in sight. They need to go to the back of the queue for P orders in this case. It is in no way our fault they changed their minds.
I’m 50/50 on it but the one thing I would compare it to and makes me think it’s not fair.
If you were in a line at a stadium that was specifically for food and then you realized you wanted beer and were in the wrong line. You can’t just jump to the front of the beer line because “you’ve been waiting for something for awhile”. Your invested wait time doesn’t transfer to other lines.
Which is kind of ridiculous. I don't have a leg to stand on because I've only been waiting ~2 weeks, but the people who originally ordered MYP's months ago and have nothing for the foreseeable future when others swapped just to get theirs sooner and surpassed them doesn't sit well at all.
Don't worry, the people that are switching will be the same ones endlessly complaining about the "bumpy" ride in the Performance while we are still waiting for VINs
Nope. Someone who got in line before you did should get their car before you (all other things equal, which they aren’t due to logistics, supply chain, etc.). Ever change your mind about what you were going to order while you were in line?
Dang! Jealous you got your EDD before me. We ordered 3/3 in SC and got an EDD update this morning too. 6/4-6/18. Fingers crossed for us both!!
Got in the line for another car and changed their mind. It’s different channels.

I agree with that but I don't know if there even is a queue. But, it's not the swappers fault, Tesla is doing this and frustrated customers are just making use of it. I have also been told my delivery was upcoming. Not. Luckily I am not financing. It's costing some folks big time as financing expires and rates rise. But still frustrated having been bumped back months to beyond the end of the 'queue' at one point and entered my EDD three times. Not alone here.
But we are all Tesla family now eh? Just a little sibling rivalry....
If we hang in there, we will get our cars eventually. I still feel privileged to be able to get one. Just want a good specimen after all this.
At the end of the day, Tesla knows that people are now desperate enough to spend thousands more to bump themselves up in line. It would not shock me if we see them institute a "pay for priority" type ordering system in the future due to this very fact.
When I ordered my car, the estimate was April and now I'm looking at June, likely due to this loophole. That said, I blame Tesla and not the line jumpers. I'm on the verge of just getting a different car altogether at this point.
It's more like changing lines entirely and being like "I have been waiting longer so I need to cut in front of you." It's like the FSD debacle all over again.
At the end of the day we’ll all get our cars, something a lot of people cannot do, to which I’m thankful for. As frustrating as the loopholes, jealousy and shortages are, at least our orders aren’t halted (yet) and we should be able to have one of these this year.
Silver lining I guess.

This kind of movement is insane... you should have gotten yours already
