Doesn’t matter what I think, this will not happen, period
Remember: this is a musk project, and musk projects always end up with massive investments, mega promises for years that it definitely definitely this time will be done next year and absolutely zero results
The few times that there are results, it’s the fucking hilarious cyber truck
