Also I wonder (although I know the reason) how he comes up with 'only 20% of twitter's architectural infrastructure' being essential to run it. I imagine it means something along the lines of 'the best case scenario of putting a tweet onto someones wall takes only 20% of our services'.
There's no-one previously employed by Twitter who would have fed him that line (because it will be totally untrue), and no self-respecting engineer from Tesla or wherever would be able to understand a whole other enterprise stack so quickly. It's such a BS line that's been created and given to him to please him that it makes him look even more foolish for actually running with it.
Edit: I've just noticed (probably belatedly) that Musk is actually suggesting that the Twitter stack apparently obeys Pareto's rule (80/20), I'm not sure why he'd be so shocked at that!
