Conway's Law in action. You have my sympathy and condolences. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conway's_law https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conway's_law FWIW, Tesla seems to be more willing to shake the ant farm. The tear downs and comparisons with other EVs are instructive. Tesla's octovalve, heat pumps, gigacasting, and I'm sure a dozen other things, just wouldn't happen (didn't happen) elsewhere. One blocker was functional silos. Maybe it takes a tyrant like Elon Musk to dare the things Deming, Drucker, Goldratt, and others were proscribing. Or external, existential threat. Like Churchill said about America: They always do the right thing, after first trying everything else. In my experience, the only times I've successfully busted silos, the circumstances were dire and everyone else had given up. Other times were much less successful.
