    One possibility is that he’s good at taking credit for the achievements of engineers and scientists. But a more charitable possibility is just that domain expertise/ignorance are real. Musk might be really good at running manufacturing companies and just not have any clue about software or politics or condoms.

    A ton of hardware guys think software is trivially easy. Some of the worst people at personal finance are doctors. I’ve met a ton of other engineers who will proudly and ignorantly tell actual economists what they think causes inflation or recessions or whatever.
