I think Elon is being more aggressive in pushing out changes. Many times companies get the "don't rock the boat" mentality for fear of breaking something, and feel that what they have is good enough.
What evidence do we have for this?
He's pushed aggressively for a few specific features, but we don't know how much of the work was done before the layoffs, whether that pace of development is sustainable, and whether it extends beyond his pet projects.
If you use the site you can literally see new changes daily, not all of them are great but at least it's not a stagnated mess like before.
