As I've pointed out before, there's "Elon's crazy stuff that helps Tesla be innovative and trailblazing" and there's "Elon's crazy stuff that is has no upside for Tesla." Tesla fans -- to say nothing of Musk himself -- perhaps should be a little less defensive when people attack the crazy stuff with no upside, and I'd argue that he's been engaging in way too much of the "no upside" crazy stuff recently.
This most recent hullabaloo may prove to be nothing -- companies overestimate projections all the time -- but if they wildly overestimated projections in a way they knew was misleading, that's an issue. "People have been telling Elon his dreams are crazy forever" is true, but it's not necessarily a solid defense.
