The reason I really like the idea of a crate motor is because one of my pet peeves about new vehicles, and EVs and Teslas in particular, is that they seem to invariably turn your vehicle into an always-connected, auto-updating tablet, with zero privacy.
Partly why I like my older truck--it's got no modem, no screens other than a little clock, and nobody in any large corporation knows exactly where I drive it every moment of the day.
