All of which is to say, there are risks in each. Just like there were when we gave up horses and went to cars.
Of course there are risks. Completely agree. Horses killed people and still kill people. But more people get killed if they are given poor advice or improper encouragement and poor/no supervision. So it could be a balance of sorts and the question is, "What is an acceptable cost to be paid for satisfying curiosity? For the cat, curiosity was expensive. I don't want it to be fatal (unnecessarily fatal) for anybody. We know better and should/could use this new EV tech to establish vastly improved safety practices. It won't happen IMO but I would support Tesla in some effort to lock up their tech or restrict it. Not all agree and I have a certain understanding of that. And I have seen some videos by Ingineerix that are great but he knows what he is doing in my estimation.
So for those technically capable they tread into risks with open eyes, volt meters and more. YouTube tinkers do not qualify their viewers that I know of. Don't encourage people that should not be encouraged as I see it. I come to this opinion painfully.
I refused to provide/sell technical information to customers of the company for which I worked. Very unpopular and needed a solution. Sales did not like unhappy customers. Nobody likes unhappy customers. Customers need quality service that comes with a process that has been thought out and in many/most cases qualified.
You said the magic word - education. No technical information without education. People still squawked when I packaged technical information along with factory technical training (2 days). Customers actually said they did not have time for training, just give us the manuals. I would send an invoice for training and manuals and require a PO that specifically declined the training. I did not make it easy to avoid education. I could usually get the training going with a phone call to the customer.
Next generation of devices, product development designed in an encrypted physical key required to do a simulation of functions. I developed service literature and procedures that required a simulation of functions that could only be done with the physical key. The key was only available on completion (including passing a test that was kept on file) of factory training. And I packaged unlimited telephone technical support and parts discounts with the training. Competence secured! Customer techs were trained, supported and effective. Customer Satisfaction surveys pointed to increased customer satisfaction even at a higher cost. Joy!
Why did I go through all this unpopular grief? Previous to this in the same business, unbelievably, people died from poor/faulty customer repairs. Otherwise pretty good customer techs ended up with a career ending tragedy on their hands. Words cannot express how unpleasant it is to spend time with lawyers in those circumstances. I left the business for almost 10 years and then came back and was able to institute this program. The new procedures and training were improvements on top of an overall safer design (God bless engineering). It was costly, unpopular at first and demanding but procedures were getting better and safer and it worked. Happy customers and me sleeping at night. So yes I may be overly sensitive to how things can go truly tragically wrong in a flash but this experience came at a great price for some and I try to give continued meaning to those senseless events through extra caution.
Nobody loves a clever fix with tape and foil and moxie more than me but I also know that whatever is not impossible is inevitable.
TLDR: Use Tesla service and love your car because it is designed to be the safest in the world.
