Being Wrong While Being Right

I really like Rivian, and RJ Scaringe seems like a good dude, but his comments nearly gave me an aneurism.

@caseyliss "There’s no reason Rivian can’t have their bespoke and seamless experience .." - Logically this seems true..but in practice I think it creates challenges. Let's say Google maps via carplay was there day 1 on Rivian. It becomes that much harder to ever justify their internal maps are the next most important fire that needs funding. It creates a tricky incentive structure throughout the org chart. Short of a Steve Jobs like level of founder micro-managing..it could be hard to overcome.
@ptoomey3 if it’s important to them — as they claim it is — then it will get done.
@caseyliss But it's not how incentive structures work (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invisible_hand) ..they setup the conditions for people to act like..people. I don't deny it's _possible_ ...it's just very very hard to do...again..short of a Steve Jobs level of founder micro-management.
