> general governmental inefficiencies and some level of systemic bias against
Imagine trying to get government permission to drive a car, but you don’t want to talk to anyone who has ever driven a car, or engage with the “overly burocratic” process for getting a drivers license.
You might end up feeling like the system is biased against you, but it should be obvious that you are just being intentionally difficult at every step.
Musk should have brought on people with experience rather than try to sidestep the system. This isn’t like his self driving cars where he can just put it out I beta and blame end users for getting killed or killing others.

No one who has ever worked even just as a week as an intern in the field would ever have the blatant disregard for proper procedures they had. It’s just as insane as if Elon had said “just put a dozen or so untested self driving cars in the city center and see if they crash”. Animal testing isn’t something where you go “Oh it’s only an animal so we don’t give a fuck how we treat it”, there are very high bars that you need to stick to. People know that if they work in the field, which is why you need professionals and not just biohackers who don’t care about any established processes and just want to skip them in the spirit of “the ends justify the many animals we carelessly brutalized without any care taken to avoid it”
