SpaceX has that and they have Gwynne. So do pretty much all other car manufactures, specifically with electric cars.
Having great service while scaling is insanely difficult. Just having some other influentual manager is not gone magically solve that incredibly difficult problem.
Overall the company has been anything but messy, rather they have been executing pretty well, better then most people expected.
For what it’s worth, I feel they are also doing things that are tougher than most other companies. And actually moving the industry forward in some ways.
I don’t know what people expected but I expect them to miss deadlines with the harder stuff where they’re trailblazers (like autopilot).
But building a reliable car is largely a solved problem. Even Elon has admitted they over engineered the manufacturing before they had to just use more people.
Tesla had issues with manufacturing, like everybody. That is why there are not more car companies. But they have mastered this and massively improved each generations, go look at the tear down of the 3 and the Y. They have managed to make China Model 3 cheaper and have achieved pretty good margin.
They continue to innovate and have been strategically investing in becoming a battery provider and building and expanding factories in all the important markets.
And building EV at good margin is defiantly not a solved problem.
