Not that a snap of the legal fingers will change this, but it's likely in a 10+ year vision launch costs and LEO won't be single-supplier dominated quite the same way.
Tesla is losing market share. Not because they are bad cars, because the $27,000 low end unit never emerged and GWM, BYD and the Europeans are accelerating into the segment. Tesla is immensely profitable but it's not as market dominant as it was. Prestige EV auto has returned to core market brand leaders as well. You can't bottle the scent of a German brand like Audi, BMW or Mercedes.
I'm sceptical "compute in orbit" is going to be a thing. I'm skeptical the AI money pit will ever be profitable. Other ventures (chip makers) will be fine.
