the problem is, that Musk is interlinked with the success of Tesla and their ecosystem. Idk if there can be success for either of them without eachother.
Tesla could become a normal electric car and battery storage company and be fine, thrive even.
The share price would plummet to the same valuation as other companies doing similar work, which would be disastrous for people who bought in at the insane valuation that seems disconnected from reality and has done for years.
