>> Among other worries, lithium supplies, chips etc.
Lithium is not in short supply. It is everywhere. The Earth's crust is 0.1% Lithium, which doesn't sound like much, but is plenty for the foreseeable future.

The ocean is 0.2% Lithium. We own a few brine wells, and they're post-processing the brine now to get Lithium out of it.

As to chips, Tesla hasn't been affected because of its agility in simply re-engineering the product to use what's available.

The greatest risk exposure of Tesla, Space-x, and the others is that something happens to Musk. That would be devastating not only for Tesla but for the world. It is impossible to imagine where Apple would be today if Steve were still there.
