What's great about this, and Stephen Fry is brilliant, is not that he's absolving Musk, or that he's criticizing Tesla, but that it is an argument likely leading to Elon Musk protesting,

'No, my cars are good enough that I can be a Nazi!'

Well that's a pretty disgusting thing to say about someone. I don't know what Merkle did to – in his view – deserve such comments, but I can't imagine the comments were warranted.

I haven't read the piece but apparently he didn't even go into the why.
