The recall is an official designation. And yeah, pretty cool with Tesla that a lot of the recalls are done through firmware updates.

If I’m a shareholder, this is news I would want to know about. Just because you don’t care doesn’t mean others feel the same.

I don't think it's about not wanting to hear it, more so about the language used, that feels overboard. I feel it's a combination of a car industry regulator in need of updating their terminology and news outlets looking to make everything sound sensational - the end result leaving you feel like you've been mislead about what's actually going on.

Exactly. Good example is my Ram 3500 diesel. Just got a recall and I have to drive it in, and have them update something that'll take 1-2 hours to fix that bullshit emission issue Ram got caught fucking up. That's far more of an issue but it's still rather minor.
