I don't understand why Tesla gets so much flack for this. It's smart manufacturing to group together vehicle build packages. It's smart business to target the better profit margins.
Look at how Chevrolet it's handling the new Corvette. They basically reach out to the dealers, who only get so many vettes based on last year's sales, and say "the next production run is trim level X , with Y rims, and painted Z color. You get [1-3] of them. If you have a preorder customer who wants that then collect your down payment." Ultimately, you may not even get the Vette you originally wanted because you're a part of some weird dealer lottery plus Chevy trying to predict desires.
