I disagree. EVs needed more battery development which occurred largely independently of Tesla, and instead they just reaped the reward of other people's labour.

Technology wise, true. But it's not about technology. Tesla pushed for EVs to become mainstream. They made them wanted by people. Up to that, automakers ignored that tech fully, cause money was with ICE.

You can't deny the impact that they had on propping up EVs as desireable, though. There wouldn't be so many Teslas on the road if the opposite was true.
