I mean that an combined that the CEO is a openly right wing douche and they aren't making affordable cars for middle class and the recent cyber truck fiasco and the fact that they can't get the full expanded credits and the other car companies have made significant strides to catch up and exceed Tesla's autonomous driving. But yeah, it's just hybrids.

Well, there's folks like me that don't want EVs but want hybrids. I'm sure that plays into it in some small way. Definitely dwarfed by all your reasons though
