A more accurate version might be "Musk's inability to get out of a bad decision to buy the company".
None of this surprises me. For all of Elon's recent bravado about "free speech", he is a capitalist first and foremost. When it became clear he couldn't get out of it, I predicted he'd just follow the private equity playbook: cut costs, fold or sell-off non-core assets, saddle the company with complicated debt and then sell it off while claiming victory.
He'll probably retain all the power with a Silicon Valley share structure.
None of this is surprising.
