    Probably the stuff requires back end connection to properly work. So just the data is useless as it has references in the database to all sorts of other systems/applications and it would require all this data to also be available.

      well, then, they should make those systems available to port the data or entire applications over en toto, it’s not like Fisker is going to be doing anything with them

        Probably… but that would mean it’s kinda a “you need the whole Fisker system” like they said.
