And he has a history of pushing for an idealistic futuristic future, with pushing spacex to figure out how to land rockets or how to make a profitable EV, so ya, I’m willing to say there’s a likely chance he was honest in thinking it was a bad idea and California, the home of silicon valley and advanced technology could maybe come up with something better.

Tom Nicholas has really good essay on this topic. Musk is not a futurism proponent. He is an apocalyptic visionaire.

But we’ll never really know.
