I’m a car enthusiast, first. And an iconoclast. It’s not the brand, or the mission that I love so much about my car. It’s that Tesla set out to throw out the rulebook and build the best car that can possibly be built. And, IMHO, they nailed it.

No, cost for wages is counted just the same as any other cost. Only Tesla knows for sure how much they are making per car.
Indeed, and people will adapt. Watch for a flood of ebikes. Then, watch the increased hospital costs outpace the revenue seized from the few remaining un-tolled commuters.
I’m not agreeing with you, but even if you are right, so what?

It’s so they can put Y rated tires on them. 186 MPH rated.
Who is going to be liable for the cost to replace the speed limit sign that got knocked down?
There are 2 use cases where Autopilot been useful to me.
My Model 3 has been fantastic. Best car ever. Makes other cars feel like they are from the 18th century. Is it perfect? No. If the trunk has a lot of water on it a little water gets in the trunk when I open it. Once it’s paid off the plan is to replace my brides’ Infiniti with a Model Y.
