Musk: "complex planning requirements [are] at odds with the urgency needed to fight climate change"—IOW "get out of my way already, I'm important".

If we want to fight climate change and reduce emissions, we'd better not switch from fossil fuel SUVs to luxury EVs, but rather turn to alternatives like living more locally, and using trains a lot more. But that step is not what is being promoted, surprise, and it's also not a step that many people are ready to do. They fiercely identify with their vehicles and can become quite aggressive whenever one threatens to make owning a car more expensive. At least, should climate change 'happen one day' (/s), they'll have a car to drive somewhere else (again, /s).
