I think most startups would be thrilled to know the success bar for them has moved to competing in every customer segment in every market globally!

Back to the 1930s United example: United eventually split into United Technologies & United Airlines amongst others, with UT selling aviation technology to the government and others, and UA obvs being the operator ...

The speculation with Tesla's new Model S yoke-wheel is so that eventually it can be retracted into the dash in FSD mode (as well as giving a better view of both screens) - you could see Tesla splitting like United into an energy tech company with a transpo division, and the other part an operator of robotaxis.


who knows where it goes?
