马斯克提醒合并并非确定，需要获得 Tesla 全部股份 50% 的赞成票，门槛很高。
他说，有些人认为 SpaceX 与 Tesla 合并是板上钉钉，这是夸大其词。他补充说，最终股东必须支持，尤其是 Tesla 方面需要所有股份 50% 的赞成票，而不仅仅是投票者，这是相当高的门槛。原文 (en)
"I think some people out there assume that a SpaceX and Tesla merger is a certainty, and I think that would be overstating it," he said. Musk added, "At the end of the day, the shareholders have to be supportive of this, and particularly on the Tesla side, we will need a 50% vote of all shares, not just those who vote, but of all shareholders. And that's quite a high hurdle to try to achieve."
