Yeah, they wasted time on cars like the Model X, semi and Cybertruck, all needlessly complicated vanity projects that took resources away from the Model 3 and possibly a Model 2. Not to mention the FSD that's been 2 years away for like a decade now.

If they stuck to their initial roadmap they would probably be in a way better position, although without Musk I don't know if they would've been able to juice the stock the way they have now. His cult is basically keeping the stock price irrationality high.
