The difference is that Tesla is just getting both the profit on the manufacturing and the sale of car. Their choice to do this was based on “speed to market” not fairness or benefit to consumer.

I could agree with this stance early on, but now they are selling at a rate of nearly 25,000 cars per quarter and have 3 production lines and 2 more about to be added.
I find it interesting they still cling to the original model and are in a steady and consistent climb in production numbers.
