Will this help users on Bing with their number 1 desired search destination, Google?
Or their 7th most common destination, Bing?

Not necessarily. They could split the video in advance, assuming the ads will always be at the same point. Even if not, they could still use the direct, unaltered source with a range. The big challenge would be keeping it all synced, which I think is safe to say that they will get right.
But even if it did need to be transcoded, YouTube automatically transcodes every single video uploaded, multiple times. They are clearly not afraid of it.
It negates the point of a contract. What kind of contract even has a term of length without a set price?
The average lifespan of a car is 200k miles, not 300k. While it's not uncommon to see cars going higher than that, it's rare to see them get to 300k. I've had 2 Toyotas that died between 230k and 260k. There are more citations in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Car_longevity
Given that 300k km is ~186k miles, I think OP made a pretty reasonable comparison.
As for robustness, how do you even define that? Repair costs per year/mile? Frequency of repairs needed? In either case, there's a much bigger gap between a Jeep and a Toyota than between ICE and BEV.
Let's not forget the Golden Handcuffs. Although given what was reported from Twitter, I'm not sure that applies.
While I would generally agree with that statement (and gave you an up vote for it), I feel like Musk twisted that away from any normal business move.
For instance, many customers aren't paying for premium features. Rather, they were extorted into paying, because their professional lives depend on it.
And even after all that, it's not like it's catering to users on any level. No one is saying that Twitter is better now. Well, no one except the Russian bots and the Nazis.
When a business blames its customers for choosing to no longer be its customers, it's a sure sign the business is declining. Depending on the severity, it's often a sign the business is failing.
This applies here, as well as any time you see an article that millennials are killing <business/industry/etc>. It also applies when an entertainer blames their (potential) audience for not enjoying their work. See Jerry Seinfeld, Kid Rock, etc.
No one owes your business any patronage.
Looking forward to seeing this on Technology Connections. Seems right up his alley.
But knowing his timeframe of products, it'll probably be 20 years from now...
"handle" is doing a lot of heavy lifting there. The signs are already there that all of these edge cases will just be programmed as "safely pull over and stop until conditions change or a human takes control". Which isn't a small task in itself, but it's a lot easier than figuring out to continue (e.g.) on ice.
