That doesn't make any sense to me. Musk has done genuinely pioneering work in electric vehicles and rocketry. Things like the Boring company or Neurolink obviously haven't really panned out - but still, good areas to work in. That he also goes a bit crazy on Twitter doesn't really take away from any of that. To think less of Musk for his tweets means that you equate the latter behavior with the former, when, clearly, the former is much more consequential.
Every notable figure, and likely (almost) every person, has done things that are bad. Gandhi was a racist, Lincoln's social media squabbles led him to a duel, Edison electrocuted an elephant for entertainment or advertising, and so on. That Musk has flaws shouldn't surprise anyone or discredit him for his accomplishments.
