That last sentence seems like a non sequitur (or, at best, a radical tangent).



I agree! I thought the article ended there because I ran out of free monthly articles and I got cut off.

Seems like half of it is missing.


Ditto. I was intrigued and eagerly reading and then looked for the "more" button.


My last sentence? It's another example of the mistake I described.


Yes, your last sentence. What does it have to do with the article? How is an example of a mistake?


Since I was criticizing the article of making a type mistake that was not specific to Musk, I wanted to give another example of this type. Likewise, if I had said "the author is committing the typical-mind fallacy" to an audience who wasn't familiar with it, it would be helpful to provide a quick example of that fallacy that was distinct from the one made by the author.
