That's likely another common phenomenon, tech debt. I'm certain that the software development team would like to get just a week to work on it and tidy at least some of it up because it most likely makes it harder to develop new features, but the product manager / exec sponsor / Elon won't let them because there is a massive backlog of features that are critical to Tesla's success that take priority.It's not just one or two updates though, is it?
The whole UI has bugs and disparate ways of doing things. The browser, Netflix, YouTube etc all do things in different ways. It shows a basic lack of programming expertise at the planning level.
Like a light show. Or a "car colourizer".
You and I are in agreement. I previously described is what likely happened in December that allowed all of those tiny little fonts and stupid menus into the UI. However what we are dealing with is a common lack of organisational discipline and dysfunction that impacts software engineering. I'm sure that the development teams working at Tesla are very good, however organisationally they're up against it.
Compare the software that we use every time we drive with your iPhone and how iOS has never had a major screw up in well over a decade, Tesla is far from being the best in the software business.
