There is a German language expression for Einstein that I can't remember but it roughly translates to "Head in the Clouds." Einstein got fired by his father because he couldn't produce at a practical level. Edison was obviously a great inventor but he was not proficient in the mass manufacturing thing. Ford was great at the mass manufacturing thing but not great at product development. He never got around to the Model-A. TSLA is integrating in all four dimensions: head in the clouds, inventing, mass manufacturing, and product development.
Knowing about a lot of things is nice. Helps in conversations. But synthesizing what you know into something that was only there in parts before, that's the hard part. That's what Elon does. When he's not impregnating women.
