I generally agree with this, and it's been my consistent experience too.
But since I'm in full-on Elon Musk fanboy mode right now, have you seen in him the exact opposite? He's extremely up-front about things, good, bad and ugly, and it's so refreshing.
Additional tangent: I suspect that's what drew so many people to Trump and Sanders. Though it's hard for me to put both of them in the same sentence together, one thing they have in common is, at least, the appearance of being straightforward. In Sanders' case, I think he is truly being straightforward.

As much as I love Elon Musk as well, I have to admit that some of comments around Autopilot and the accidents and possible problems surrounding it have had a distinct whiff of corporate new-speak to them.

Do you remember Ferdinand Piech telling Americans they didn't know how to drive when the Audi acceleration thing was happening back in the late eighties?
