It's a mission, not a business plan. Colonising Mars was always a moonshot as well. But it aligned the company's priorities.

My point is regardless of what you think of a Dyson sphere, this theory seems to predict what the company does better than assuming everything's a ketamine fever dream.

Mars was a moonshot, pivot to the actual moon. ;)

I think Musk being a ketamine addict explains a lot and this is very aligned. Given that he can't build a self-driving car, he would have to be under the influence of very strong drugs to think he could build a Dyson sphere of all things.

That being said, some sort of financial fraud is even more on brand.
