Well, he wanted “sub 10 micron accuracy” on all parts and given the reason especially for visible pieces and that obviously includes the panels. Those panels are famously not lining up properly and due to physics, extend and retake based on temperature, which… causes bending and even more misalignement. As Elon clearly didn’t want that and expected 400 times better results, and he knows more about manufacturing than any other person, no one knew that it will not be possible to be sub 10 micron accurate. Right? But why is there a forum conversation from 2012 about the gap issues with the delorean? And why are they telling the person asking that it is normal and unavoidable with stainless steel? Was that a commonly known issue? Yes it was.
While I am not a fan of ai and don’t trust them… google forced them down my throat and I think you should see it too. https://imgur.com/a/AnQE0xm
How did Elon not know, If he knows more about manufacturing than any human alive, when random people on the internet were aware of the issues with stainless steel panels and gaps? Mystery.
