Prototypes and projects they may be, they still speak to Google's greater ambitions. They're aiming high. That's all I'm saying. It's hard to argue against that. It's easy to forget that Tesla and SpaceX weren't always the great cars and great rockets with great efficiency they are today. Just 3-4 years ago they were both on the brink of collapse. In one of my undergraduate business classes in 2009, one of my professors literally used Elon Musk and Tesla/SpaceX as a case study in poor management. Like SpaceX and Tesla, Google X's moonshots deserve time to evolve.
