I'm not: if he has shares, he gets to profit from Tesla's success. Worse: in your scenario, Tesla might do better and he might profit even more.

Well that's never going to happen. There is no way to force him to sell those shares, or take them from him without a premium where he makes even more.

At least my suggestion is plausible.

Yeah you're right, it's not going to happen.

My point was, while your suggestion is indeed plausible, it won't save Tesla: would-be EV buyers who give Tesla a pass don't do it because Musk is on the board or runs the company, they do it because they don't want to give their money to a fucking Nazi.
