I don't have an answer for this, but the richest person in the world has unique motivations other than maintaining a profitable technology business. What if better technology products could be created when divorced from shareholder profits and therefore the influence of advertising? Or if divorced from any government regulation/oversight? Now that's a big if but IF you run with that as Musk's motivation, then he doesn't particularly care about making Twitter profitable. It'd be more valuable to him as another lever of influence on society generally. Could Twitter become more than just a brawling drunken town square? Could it capture public goodwill by eradicating advertising from Twitter and offering an open-source encrypted email and messaging service outside the purview of Five Eyes? Then build off the manufacturing innovations Tesla pioneered and create a cheap open hardware phone?
