I'm curious to understand what type of issues they constantly run into.. supply chain issues? Regulation compliance? Inadequate planning? Development errors?

While I think these companies should definitely be regulated, I'm not sure how feasible or sustainable it is to nationalize them. It might curtail competition from fostering, if people who are responsible for introducing disruptive companies are less incentivized from creating companies.

As much as I'm not a fan and I'm highly critical of Musk, one can't deny the disruptive impact his companies have had on the industries, and him forcing traditional car manufacturers to innovate. If his companies get nationalized, would that discourage others from creating potentially positively disruptive companies that would force existing industries to innovate?

I wish the world was as utopian as you described. Unfortunately, and I'm sorry to say, that's an extremely naive world view you hold. I hope you won't be taken advantage of by people with less good intentions.

Then you know full well that just because they shouldn't take all the crab legs doesn't mean they don't/won't take them all. If I go for crab legs and none are available, I'll blame Mandarin and give them a crappy review. People will be people. Can't blame them.

Then why advertise it as "unlimited" or "all you can eat"? That's false advertisement.
