My personal crackpot theory is a lot of these people become addicted to the gamble, so following a simple sure thing plan is actually a huge turn off for them. I definitely think you see this in Elon's recent behavior, where even if he ultimately took the same strategic actions, just a tiny bit of restraint in the execution would save him vast sums of money and headache.
