Gali talks here about how Tesla could design their own tyres:
  • Reduce microplastics which is a huge portion of ocean contaminants.
  • Quieter
  • Presumably more efficient

Some ideas:
Longer lasting is a good fit for robotaxis. Reduced microplastics is very Elon and would be a huge deal for the environment.

People who want freedom, independence for themselves, their locality, country should want solar, wind, storage & EVs.

People who want less pollution should also prefer EVs, especially in urban environments.

It seems that the report from "Emissions Analytics" may be at the root of the... "information" - at least for some reports I've seen.

Seems EV tyre wear is less than ICE.

Do Electric Car Tyres Wear Slower than Normal Car Tyres? (they fix cars in UK, very big - at least one in every town).
