Elon designs nothing. He finances the design of, sure, and is just as culpable. But let's not credit him with things he didn't, and can't, do.

This. The closest he's ever come to doing any real work whatsoever is kneecapping the engineers who did design Teslas.

In fact, it's clear he didn't know shit about the Cybertruck until the reveal event. He was telling people things like "bulletproof glass" and shit. Would a designer or engineer who was involved in the development of the product have such basic misconceptions about the product itself?

I thought that was the point - he claims to be incredibly involved, and if he was, he's responsible.
