>> fighting on Twitter, crashing cars...

Wouldn't that put Elon Musk in the bad books as per your rather prejudicial yardstick of measuring the worthiness of a person at the helm of a company?

Also, it was Advitiya (the other co-founder) at Housing who crashed his car.

Correlation is not causation. Just because Elon Musk did so does not mean that rate of success among car crashing CEOs is not lower than the rest of them.

You've got to look at a nominal case, the median, not the outlying example to justify your mistakes.
