I wonder why he couldn't just play the "brilliant engineer innovator titan of industry" part without the "teenage edgelord stick-it-to-the-libs Twitter troll" piece. Or was the latter always a prerequisite for his success, his ability to get eyeballs at all costs?

It feels like all of that toxicity was unnecessary and he could have been impactful and transformational without it, but maybe I'm wrong.
