Thank you, interesting article. As a conscious content consumer, I had the feeling the writers and editors didn't leave things out, but underplayed aspects of the project that weren't flattering, like the initial public display of a "robot" actually being someone in a robot costume. I have a sneaking feeling that WSJ gave Musk and the project more than a few breaks.

“Who wouldn’t want their own personal C-3PO/R2-D2?” Musk said in November, referencing the droid characters in “Star Wars” movies. “This is why I say humanoid robots will be the biggest product ever.
"
R2-D2 is not a humanoid robot, which ruins Musk's point.
One would expect a professional journalist being paid to write about robots to know this.
