Let’s presume, for the purposes of discussion here, that they did comply with those regulations and the CT does have an internal escape latch.  Would we trust it to actually work?

I am 100% sure that we will someday learn the CT started as a drunken cocktail napkin doodle from Elon, and in his exaggerated pride he refused to allow any modifications after he’d sobered up (if he did).

“Where was Helaena this episode? We got one teeny glimpse at her”

Yeah, I was thinking that while watching.  Just a secret passphrase!  That’s all it would have taken.

The OP’s comment history reveals this to be the case.

I think The Villages would be a pretty strong entry on this list too.

“A lot of publications seem to be running stories or editorials talking about the collapse of EV sales and how everyone pushed too early and blah blah blah.”
