I don't know. I don't understand why you're asking me this.
I have been both both critical and supportive of Tesla, depending on the topic of discussion. It's called being objective.
Because this article is about someone being trapped in a car when the battery died, and saying "it's hard to tell when a battery is going to fail" skips over the fundamental problem of being unable to open the door when that happens.
It's not "skipping over" anything. I was not commenting on the door latches. I was commenting on a specific failure to do with the battery exclusively. I commented elsewhere that the latches a terrible and stupid design. Every car should have mechanical door latches, inside and out. If for no other reason than simplicity and reliability.
