A subscription model where you know the exact terms is less exploitative than a fixed cost where it’s not even clear if the upgrade is sticky or not (as is currently the case for Tesla.)

I don’t get the “it’s not a service” argument. It’s not relevant. There’s no ongoing cost with many software licenses either. It’s just a business model.
