Even if we assume these are unforeseen conditions as defined in the contract (and I disagree that "unforeseen conditions at the installation location" cover some of the examples presented), the remedy within the contract is to "receive an updated Price Sheet to accept or reject. If you reject the updated Price Sheet, this agreement will terminate."Because that "unforeseen" part allows them to dissolve the original contract obligations. It's far easier to simply send a new contract than to annotate changes in the original - it's a new "clean" contract.
It is fair to ask whether this is really a substantial difference, though I see two at least two ways in which it could be. First, at least when we were going though the process, Tesla continued to use the same relative, approximate start date in every iteration of the contract, effectively resetting the date for performance with each new contract. While Tesla assured me that wouldn't actually affect scheduling (and, in my case, they were correct), when combined with the emails folks have received about prioritizing installs in the order of signing the new contract, the distinction could be seen as material. Second, if any other terms were changed (and I'm not sure if that has been established) in the new contract, that would also be an issue.
