It would be nicer if it was not saddled by hubris and a lack of domain knowledge

It would be great if it were not such a colossal waste

Meh results oriented thinking. Elon revolutionized rockets and electrical vehicles with 0 previous domain knowledge.

In another timeline both concepts fail and he's just another clueless guy who blew a bunch of money on ideas outside his domain - doesn't mean it wasn't worth trying.
