I mean, this is something we want to encourage. Everyone always likes to quote fiduciary duty ad nauseum. Here is a public company flying (lol) in the face of that in the spirit of, well, fun.

But, this version of the Roadster is just a concept car with many extra steps, isn't it?

What happens when a charged COPV is involved in a car accident?

What is the point of reaction thrusters that turn anyone on the wrong side of the car into pink mist?

Will anyone ever be allowed to drive this on a public roadway?

We're not just talking about "fiduciary duty". Some people put down large (250k) down payments for the Roadster when it was announced 9 years ago. If I were one of those folks I'd be more interested in getting an actual car I could drive than seeing a cool demo.
