Thank you, but it's comments like your original "That's simply...." (and worse) which turn some people against Tesla and is what I was getting at in my first post in this thread. I have seen far too many Tesla fans/supporters wanting to blame everyone or everything else for Tesla’s problems. It's not Tesla’s fault the stock is down, it's just the media's or the haters'. It's not Tesla’s fault they keep missing production numbers, it's just the media's or the haters'. It's not Tesla's fault their credit rating was downgraded, it's just the media's or the haters'. You can’t blame Tesla for this or that, they're just a new company. And so on. It’s like Tesla can do no wrong but when they do it must be someone or something else's fault
It is why people like myself fall into the "the problem is not with the 'message' (electric cars and tech), it's with the 'messengers' (fanatics)" camp.
