What's really shocking to me is how bad Musk, a self-professed "seeker of truth," is at identifying false information. He consistently promotes theories which can be proven false with just cursory research.
only so many ounces of brainpower available to spend per day, and his seem to be focused on cars and rockets, mostly. no reason to challenge ideas and assumptions if they don't stroke your ego or improve you bottom line.
and that leaves out deliberate signaling / "4-D chess", if he's sober enough to play that game -- and he might be.
