Teslas are known as the Panel Gap kings of the automotive industry, even in countries that still have clear memories of British Leyland where you were never even sure the doors on your car were actually meant for the model you bought.
Comment on You're Supposed To Be Glad Your Tesla Is A Brittle Heap Of Junk

At least that's just visual. Still shit for a car that expensive. But the welding and "engineering" holy shit these are crappy cars

How so? Doesn’t seem like much of a disconnect with the article as sometimes happens.

Where is the "supposed to be glad" part in the article?

Last paragraph...
"Then the wheel falls off while you're driving, or the autopilot plows into a jersey wall, and you're meant to be thrilled.* Glad even. Grateful! This is proof: You were an early adopter. A beta tester, a brave explorer. You're helping to work out the bugs, mapping new territory. Who knows? In a hundred years this car's descendants might be as reliable as cars that by then will be 150 years old, and you will have played a part in making it so. Won't that be nice.
*Assuming you lived through it."
