> My life would be exactly the same without any of his products.

And what about the lives of people who'll come after you, generations after you? Well he does care. And if you think that he runs his businesses for the money, then you're in for a big surprise when I tell you, there are far far far easier ways to make lots of money with someone of his skills and intelligence, than trying to compete in two industries, one monopolized by a few with a mind shatteringly high barrier to entry, and the other saturated by established players that have optimized their cost over a century and reduced their margins to bare minimum to stay competitive.

> while my life (and everyone else here as well) would not be possible without the products from traditional "boring" companies that nobody cares about anymore

Wait 50 years. Then Tesla will be traditional, boring and the one that one's life would not be possible without.

That's the kind of insight that's valuable to a productive debate and sets the right tone for it. /s

There's nothing to debate, when all you wrote was a list of everything you personally didn't care about.

We can talk about facts, effect of things on larger population, etc. I'm not gonna start a debate on you as an individual.
