You are thinking logically only if you are a shareholder. Then it makes absolute sense to think like that to stay hopeful.

From the consumer POV who doesn't own shares in the brand, it makes no sense at all.

> enormous amount of Tesla drivers who couldn't care about FSD but simply enjoying the car as an EV

Are there an enormous amount of disappointed Tesla drivers as well who stuck with it because of a sunk cost fallacy?

Should, for example, CyberTruck owners who spend 150K on a bullet-proof car be happy that in the new 2026 version the panels finally will stop falling off?

Should the few million people who purchased Tesla Model 3 feel better that the new version finally drives like a car?

All cars have pain points and whilst people in an existing Model 3 might be annoyed ride quality has been improved in the new model, it is good that the specific pain point has been addressed. Afterall you wouldn't stop improving your car simply because you didn't want to annoy existing customers.

Either way, in prior comments you couldn't come to terms with them possibly fixing something like that in the first place.
