Now, just like a medical doctor we should weigh anecdotal data accordingly, but it&amp;#x27;s still data.&lt;p&gt;Here for example we can tell BMW&amp;#x2F;Audi reportedly sometimes make production errors. Tesla reportedly don&amp;#x27;t always make significant (to the commenter) production errors.&lt;p&gt;Sure, that&amp;#x27;s not terribly useful.
