I've also listened to him in numerous interviews basically stating he is addicted to it. He's tried to control it in various ways. He can't. I'm not blaming him or saying he's weak, just that he himself realizes he has a problem and should take the next logical step since self-censoring doesn't seem to work for him. The stakes are pretty high for not complying. I understand your points. I don't think any of his companies would suffer if he wasn't the one making announcements. Stop talking about production. Hype all of the cool revolutionary tech you create all you want - just don't attribute it or mention the business side of things, especially when they are speculative. State facts, after they are facts..."we said it would be x production for 2019, and well, here we are at the end of the year we blew that away!!" or something factual. If he doesn't get a handle on it, he will lose it. That won't be good for anyone, except for competitors. I don't think Elon's use of Twitter is as useful of a tool for him in 2019 compared to when he started. There is plenty of buzz about his companies. I have tremendous respect for him. I absolutely don't want to see him fail, or see it fail because of something trivial like not being able to stop yourself from tweeting certain things that are off limits. There's too much on the line.
