A lot of tech is terrible because the designers aren't the users. You can be sure that if every engineer and manager at Tesla was forced to drive them daily, they'd have a lot more safety factor built in. Simple things like doors that worked in the event of a power failure or built in fire suppression to give the occupants more time.

The fact that Edison is being built by people from a logging company that operates away from parts warehouses means it will be designed with "In The Field" fixability in mind and wont have anything tied down to an internet connection.
