It shows how the FT is a 2D slice of the 3D LT in the s-domain.
After "resolving" the issue, then they can resume tolerating the normal probabilities.
In the US, it might be more of a precaution. In Europe, it could be more of a legal obligation. Either way, I doubt engineering has a say in the matter.
Debating total cost depends almost entirely on the particular grid in question. For all we know, those "nuclear fans'" estimates could be spot-on but completely irrelevant to you.
Suppose that the eventual production vehicle has a fairly different design, a different name, and it succeeds on its first flight. Would it then have used the same methodology that resulted in Falcon 9?
I'm only asking rhetorically. The Ship of Theseus is an interesting philosophical question, but the way you define "methodology" shouldn't depend on your answer.
This is it. Everyone is making money hand over fist despite not doing it. You might want it, but you don't need it.
Also, those numbers are for ripple-free DC, which you're not going to find in a car. They're cut roughly in half for ripple peaks.
Also, specs aren't well standardized between manufacturers. TI has some good videos explaining what their power MOSFET specs mean and how those definitions vary across the industry.
Automatic optimization can only get you so far.
Let's say you had to invent that wire protocol. You would write a test for a client that doesn't care which wire protocol is used.
