Dumb on Elon. This is clearly a decision he made the Sunday afternoon before he had it rolled out. He'd teased it a long time ago, and anyone familiar with his obession with the letter X would have seen it coming, but this implementation clearly demonstrates he didn't ask anyone to look into what would be involved with the rebrand. He just made them do it
