I’m reminded a bit of George Washington. He lost almost every battle, but persisted to win the war. With failures like growing only 75% a year, rather then 100 or 150% or getting FSD done a year or two later then planned, but years ahead of the rest, those are failures we can all be happy about down the road. It may hurt the stock in the short run, but even short term, the stock is approaching 1 times forward one year revenue. It is engineering for lower earnings to lock in a very long term market leadership and possibly a near monopoly in the transportation as a service market. Keep failing Tesla and keep overpromising your way to 500+ billion market cap.
GREAT analogy! I love it, along with the rest of your post!
BTW, if you haven't seen it, AMC produced a fantastic miniseries a few years ago showing General Washington's struggles to survive onslaughts by the British Army, and how he eventually won the war;

In a way, Tesla is also fighting a Revolutionary War; in a struggle for independence from OIL!
