Would you have delayed the first release to tackle these sounds? If so, any day not shipping products is a day closer to going bankrupt.

If you "fix" these sounds in v2, then you'll still need to explain them in the manual for v1 owners.

Ultimately it's not really a bug. People aren't used to cars being so quiet so some minor new sounds suddenly stand out.

Sound design is an important part for many other manufacturers. There are literally people who's job it is to make sure that things like the "thump" of a closing door sounds good and on-brand. Though to be fair it's kind of an outgrowth of legacy car manufacturers who need to sell tiny bits of progress to stay relevant.

You mean when you physically close a car door they might shape the internal sound dynamics in either the frame or inside the door or adding some surface layer to the door itself?

[fragmede]

Both, and more. The hardware/software in the latch itself gets tuned to make the "thump" the "thump", and not a "thunk".

Do you think it took less than a day to implement "ludicrous" mode?
