That is how Elon has always run.
He has said many times the slower-than-ideal ramp for the Model 3 assembly line very nearly bankrupted Tesla (it was within a few months).
When the first two SpaceX launches failed he spent all their remaining money on the next one - if it failed, SpaceX would have too.
He has also said if either Tesla or SpaceX go bankrupt, so does he.
He is literally betting the house with every major decision.
