How does it get rid of perverse incentives? The unionised human workers use sub-standard material so they can do (and charge for) the same repair next year, but the owners of the robots do not have the very same incentive?
Is it because humans are mendacious, fallible, and corrupt, while Elon is honest, reliable, and not motivated by money?
