Tesla's latest "Master Plan 4" has been a hot topic, but it's left many scratching their heads. Released over two months ago, this plan is supposed to outline Tesla's future goals. However, it's so vague that even Tesla fans are questioning it. Despite this, Tesla is using it as a key argument to convince shareholders to approve a massive $1 trillion compensation package for CEO Elon Musk.

The plan talks about spreading "sustainable abundance" but lacks concrete details. This is a big change from previous Master Plans, which had specific goals. For example, the third Master Plan was a detailed 41-page document. In contrast, Master Plan 4 is just a short post with big ideas but no clear steps on how to achieve them.

Tesla has been pushing this plan hard, mentioning it in shareholder materials and interviews. But when asked about the lack of details, Tesla's design leader Franz von Holzhausen simply said they'll do it "in Tesla fashion. " That's not very reassuring for those looking for clear answers.

Elon Musk has been quiet about the plan lately, focusing more on promoting the compensation package. He's even hinted that he might leave Tesla if the vote doesn't pass. This has left many wondering if the plan is just a way to secure his future with the company.

Despite the criticism, Tesla seems to be sticking with Master Plan 4. Whether it's a bold vision or just empty words remains to be seen. For now, shareholders have a big decision to make.
