musk's public image is well known, and the statement is reflecting a useful heuristic / business sense; some customers really would use claude less knowing that it's buddies with musk now. Your own immaturity leaks through. I would say that the one weakness for OP is that people okay with using claude but not okay with grok might be a different size overlap than expected (either more people fine with both, or more people disjoint, or it just doesn't factor in for people).
