I kind of get their point that the high voltage is more dangerous than most things in a gas engine (like you might get your hand cut off with a gas engine, but atleast you didn't get your whole body deep fried), but then the solution would be to sequester all of the high voltage cables in one section, put some guard plates on it, and slap a shitton of warning stickers on it.
Like making the hood inaccessible is obviously just leading to further rent-ification of your car. But the reddit losers would rather listen to the car companies explanation than, say, tractor mechanics and farmers who has already experienced this with John Deere making every bolt and screw on their machines proprietary.
at the risk of sounding too judgy, I'm certain that none of the redditlords imagining that safety is the reason have ever turned a wrench in anger, to them everything under the hood is the realm of the mechanic
also the incoming false narrative "the left doesn't really care about the environment!" just because some random apolitical individuals prefer to own a vehicle that's not elon musk's property and only used gas cars exist for that.
all the redditors defending this with the big brain idea that only with the advent of electrical power is anything under the hood of a car dangerous
:le-pol-face:
These exposed spinning belts would never hurt you after all

I don't think anyone can disagree with this :foucault-madness:
