I didn't downvote you, but you might not be aware that Paypal like Google is known to have been Less Evil back in the day. So much so that--and I'm going completely by memory so I might fuck this up--Douglas Crockford went to Paypal when he was pissed off with a patent play Yahoo made and took a moral stand, quitting in protest. It was one of those companies that had a rep of putting developers first.
Now how much genetic material Paypal retained from Musk's x.com I have no idea and whether Musk was responsible for any of "the good stuff" in Paypal during those years is debatable (See Founders At Work for the windows/linux debates).
