I'll soon be in the market for an EV, and I wish what you're saying we're true.

Other brands are more expensive, and their base price can barely compete with a tesla, but their options pricing is ridiculous.

There's LOTS of teslas where I live because it's the best bang for your buck right now as far as EV comes.

I dislike Musk as much as anyone else around here, but the companies he fronts have met lots of success, I guess because there are lots of very competent people actually running them (i.e. Gwynne Shotwell for SpaceX)
