However, I do think they have to continue to be careful picking locations that are close proximity to family farms.

Also, do you think the operating model is strong enough to hold in the future if Musk leaves to dedicate more of his time to another project?

Brian. Great post! I know a lot of people have called them “cheats” in the past. Do you think there is an ethical dilemma here since they “steal” existing business models?
