>> (I'm assuming that Tesla only made the owner pay the cost of the 60 battery swap even though they replaced it with a 90)

It says right there that it was done under warranty.

If my RTX3080 breaks, and Nvidia sends me a 3080Ti as a replacement(because maybe they don't have any 3080 in stock) then no, they can't lock it down to 3080 level 3 years later with a software update. And yes, I'm allowed to sell it on as a 3080Ti, because....that's what it is.

>>The previous owner shouldn't have sold it as a 90 or at least disclosed that, "It's a 60 but Tesla swapped out the batter with a 90 and left it configured as a 90".

Maybe, but again, I don't see why that should be necessary. Tesla should not have been able to do this, period.
