It seems to be clearly a typo.
My brain automatically disambiguated it to be "flagship ford battery factory".
Because it is obviously an article about a factory that makes batteries.
Maybe a sloppy typo. But the negative feedback about the article because of this is pretty extreme.
- refulgentis 3y agoIt's HN, things that are clear cruel nitpicks elsewhere, are signal to be remarked upon, we're highly sensitive, in ways good and bad. You're right, once is a typo. But the consistent pattern is quite rare in good writing. Also, you make a good point re: OP's comment was not so much focused on grammar --- they had an interesting observation re: style I'm, and I wanna see I'm familiar with from labour-focused news publications. Which I support!! But, in a sentence, there's a sort of forced first-person, emotional, lengthy narrative that is quite appealing, but you're also not quite sure what actually happened.
