What are you talking about? Elon is all over SpaceX constantly. It’s easily one of the biggest critic complaints, just like every other Elon company.
The difference however, is that SpaceX has Gwynne Shotwell, and she is able to keep things on track, even with Elon. That is something none of Elon’s other companies have an equivalent.
Starship was still Elon’s brainchild and it is years behind, and threatens the viability of the entire Artemis program. Their finances are also terribly linked to the success of Starlink, which is also shaky at best.
I’m pretty sure it’s an open secret that Elon isn’t really involved in SpaceX’s operations (except raising money and doing publicity) because of his drug use. Like, the military was very upset when he smoked weed with Joe Rogan and did a review and found he wasn’t as involved as he pretends.

Brain fart. My bad.
No worries. SpaceX IMO is basically proof that Elon being involved is fine as long as he’s not actually the one in charge on a daily basis.
There needs to be a Gwynne at every Elon company. But it seems that none of the other company Boards realize that.

I would not say SpaceX is “on track.”
