Musk is nothing more than a VC courting other VCs. He tries to pump up the stock through side shows. Like staging the self-drive features of Telsa EVs. Showing off home battery backup system on Desperate Housewives that does not economically scale [0]. Trying to make the news so people think he is more that just Mr. Money Bags.
He hires all the people that actually work on making the really cool stuff. Which most already where in the industry. They were just given the opportunity to try something Boeing and all the existing companies didn't support. High confidence number of those engineers that joined SpaceX already had ideas for a re-usable rocket system.
Even Mercades-Benz beat Tesla to market for certified self-driving. Should of really scored some of those engineers from Mercades-Benz, or the ones that handled the out-sourcing, too.
