Isn't it Elon who drove those major failed initiatives? We are overlooking how he has become a significant personal deterrant to current and potential Tesla buyers making future purchases.
Well yeah. But my point is that Tesla's been cruising on this "zombie" path ever since the real founders of Tesla, Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning, left the company over a decade ago.
Tesla finished up their Model 3 / mass production plans and that's it. Elon oversaw the Model Y (a taller Model 3 that's more popular in today's SUV-heavy 2020s car market), but that wasn't a major investment effort like all the other bits.
