When your CEO is an engineer and wants to have an engineering conversation, you speak engineer together. The risk is that you lose. That's how Musk seems to have taken it, that the guy's answers didn't check out.
It bothered me quite a bit that he didn't give the engineer points for trying and keeping it on topic in the hellstorm of a thousand people shouting insults at Elon.
I think what I didn't like about it was Elon immediately turned it into this adversarial "what have you done to fix this" conversation. But I guess the guy did open with "this is wrong".
