I was calling bullshit on this as in why would some engineer (or anyone for that matter) give a $hit what anyone did with their car? Turns out they actually do have an issue with it! Apparently they’ll be making them purple from now on.

Not that this is a tragedy, very few folks leaving them on. So what’s the big deal? That’s almost the moral equivalent of repainting your car a non factory color and they get all upset because it was never meant to be the color you repainted it.

Make cars. Sell cars. But keep out of people’s business after they buy them.
