Because the video was not faked. There are statements under oath that the video was not faked. The underlying footage shows that it was not faked. Subsequent videos which address complaints of transparency and clarity show they are committed to proving the videos are not faked. The only official Tesla statements on the matter are a cease-and-desist claiming that the videos were faked threatening immediate legal action for defamation if the videos were not taken down that they delivered over three months ago [1]. In the mean time even more videos were released, more ads were run, more public statements were made, and direct challenges to Tesla were made, but Tesla has not followed up with further cease-and-desist letters or followed through on their baseless legal threats. Given their traditionally litigious nature, there is no reason for them not to follow through even if they could not prove all prongs of a defamation case since with discovery it would be trivial to prove publicly in a court of law that the videos were faked if they were, in fact, faked. Their reluctance to do so is strong evidence that even Elon and his lawyers think a lawsuit would reveal truths they would much prefer silenced and buried.
