There needs to be a corollary to Betteridge's law, to the effect of "It's a stupid question."
Tesla is not trying to reinvent the way cars are made. Car manufacturing lines already rely heavily on automation. What's notable about Tesla is that they have been trying to automate production to a higher degree than is typical for the industry.
Don't get me wrong here, this is a big deal, and it's caused Tesla some problems that they could have avoided. But "more automation" is not revolutionary and it's not reinvention.
