Pretty much

A lot of tech used in applications like vehicles are old. There's a reason people complain all the time about slow and clunky infotainment systems in their cars, and that's because the manufacturers go with older, more reliable, and less failure prone versions of various technologies

It's shit like Musk trying to stay on the bleeding edge that causes problems. When an eight year old version of Android crashes in your car, it's going to crash in a way that's predictable from the last eight years and thus easier to diagnose and fix. When an eight day old version of Tesla X OS or whatever the fuck he'd call it crashes, you bet your ass it's gonna crash in spectacular new ways nobody knows how to fix
