ye, Elon was sweating like crazy right after the blunder. I also thought the presentation could have been rehearsed a little bit better as the slides seem to be off most of the time (I assume Elon is just way too busy to rehearse these things).

This is how every Tesla presentation goes. It's never been about Steve Jobs level presentation polish, it's always been about the quality of the product.

Especially the glass.

The glass was extremely impressive. You obviously saw the height drop tests demonstrating the Tesla glass as vastly superior to traditional auto glass.

He’s the CEO. It’s his job to represent the company. It’s his job to rehearse the slides.

[adventured]

It's definitely not his job to rehearse slides. Who would define that as part of his job for him exactly? The board?

As a CEO that is particularly overly in control, ultimately he'll decide how to present, when to present, what to present. It's a take it or leave it package, Musk is a very abnormal executive. He'll rehearse slides if he feels like it, that's clearly more like his personality.

I'm pretty sure Elon doesn't rehearse these presentations at all. He's had trivially-correctable wrong info on slides before, and had to explain it away during the presentation.
