Also too true. Particularly because the "move fast and break things" culture is almost an inverse to what is traditionally required for building safety-focused goods for the general public.

Even the corvette, which is America's sports car darling, is having issues with its motor blowing up. Their culture is about pumping out products that are cheap to build, cheaply built, and will not last long because that boosts sales. Tech still does not suffer from that. Although we are getting there. Don't confuse this with an attack against the many talented people that work in the auto industry. Detroit has amazing engineering and design talents. They are simply out ranked by the accountants and suits.
