So he made one big mistake. He's done a lot of good stuff. He was punished, he's done a lot of good for the world. Compare him to the heads of banks and financial orgs in 2008, people doing credit default swaps,, the entire financial world that takes a cut out of most transactions for no good readon, like ipos. He's a huge net positive for the world.

I don’t think the point of the comment is at all related to what Musk has or has not done, nor his value as CEO. The point was that after a public censure of a CEO and company, the subsequent Chairman would be expected to work towards preventing a similar situation and would have the authority/mandate to do so.

Edit: use Musk’s name.
