He is an ideas guy in the worst possible way - he comes up with a half-baked thought and then has a team of people far more talented than him work out the logistics of making it a reality, and takes all the credit for the result. Granted, those people are well compensated for their role, but it's so dumb how laypeople just heap praise onto musk as if he could realistically be the CEO of 5 companies simultaneously and still adequately perform his duties without any kind of delegation or outright negligence.
