People have such trouble with dichotomies.

Musk is highly accomplished and has also over-hyped his plans many times.

He’s delivered things years late that were also years ahead of others.

The actual work of SpaceX and Tesla are done by his employees, but the company wouldn’t exist if it weren’t for him.

He’s expressed some laudable goals around green tech and space exploration and also done things designed to enrich himself immensely.

Tesla’s done some cool things and also had problems.

SpaceX is awesome and Musk is also a terrible human being.

Dichotomies are uncomfortable but they’re everywhere.
