No one claimed that. Besides negativity is a self-fulfilling prediction.

And investing is not accounting...

"I think we will be feature complete — full self-driving — this year,” Musk said. “Meaning the car will be able to find you in a parking lot, pick you up and take you all the way to your destination without an intervention, this year. I would say I am of certain of that. That is not a question mark.” -Elon Musk (2019)

That is not my claim. And to be fair the claim about fsd wasn't completely wrong. It is still has failure modes but you can't argue that the tech works. Mercedes even had demos. That is still irrelevant to my initial point.
