Nope. Luck is an ingredient in success, though not the only one. The idea that all successes could/should be boiled down to luck does an injustice to the ability of humans to impact outcomes.
Also I would look at it as lessons learnt from someone who had the privilege of being part of a journey that few of us have.
Beyond all the spin, they stated the following important facts:
- Produced 2020 cars and expect to produce the 2000 next week. - Tesla does not require an equity or debt raise this year
I think these two facts laid to rest a number of concerns from last couple week: production rate, running out of money, moody's rating cut. The one major thing that's still pending is the last week's fatal crash.
As far as I can tell, this is a great progress from where we were last week.
