tbh I can't debunk any of that, but it wouldn't surprise me if he's tripling the cost of parts that are just going to get smashed into a pole after Full Self-Driving over a crowded crosswalk.
Beyond cost increases, it also slows down your fabrication (you literally can't cut as fast if you want things to be smooth). Making perfect parts is not as challenging as making pretty good parts that will work great at a third of the cost and twice as fast.
