Quite frankly why the hell should I trust any publicly traded automaker to flash quality software?
Some of them have a track record for quantifying the cost of fixing an issue versus cost of settling lawsuits for that unfixed issue killing people.
Why would I trust an unaccountable rando with the same thing? One has a brand they need to uphold, and are liable for any kind of damages caused by their firmware.
When Joe Shmo crashes his soft-modded Honda Civic into a crowd of people, who's going to pay for the damage and lawsuits, etc.?
