That just reads as expressing doubt for the sake of doubt. You have:
1) assumed that there's a recession next year (reasonable risk scenario)
2) assumed that the model 3 gets delayed (also reasonable risk scenario, but only an issue when a subset of the above)
3) assumed that the model S/X sales aren't enough to pay for operations (same exceptions as #2)
4) assumed that SCTY management isn't trustworthy (reasonable risk scenario, but very difficult to justify)
5) assumed that SCTY debt is worse than they've admitted (is a subset of #4, because trustworthy management isn't going to give you bad debt numbers, but UNtrustworthy management CAN still give you honest debt numbers)
The scenario you're worried about requires several [mostly independent] risk factors to occur _in combination_ before its a viable scenario. I just can't agree to the amount of weight you've given SCTY's debt.
Every future scenario, even the bullish ones, have their own assumptions. So assumptions aren't bad as long as one realizes that that's what they are. Assumptions have risks because we don't have all the info, and we never do about the future.
Regarding the assumptions you laid out, I'd say #3 really isn't much of an assumption since I don't think there's any way Model S/X sales are going to pay for Tesla operations when they're investing heavily into Model 3, unless S/X sales go crazy through the roof and like double. Even Elon admits, Tesla doesn't expect to be cash flow positive again (not including this quarter) until after the Model 3 is in full production.
And your #4 and #5 can be grouped together as just #5.
So, we've got three main assumptions going here:
1. there's a chance of a recession next year
2. there's a chance the Model 3 gets delayed
3. there's a chance SCTY debt is worse than their management has let on.
Now if you look at those assumptions, I don't think any of them are really out of line. They actually sound fairly sound (at least to me).
The real issue is what are the "chances", meaning what are the probabilities. What many people here seem to do is immediately discount anyone who brings up certain risks. But the three risks above are important risks to evaluate because I think they are legitimate risks that every investor in TSLA should not only be aware of but weigh themselves. For some, they might see the risks of all three as negligible. But for others, the risks might be more substantial. But I think it's probably not wise to claim that there are no risks with any of those 3 risk factors. (For example, who would like to argue 1) there's no chance of a recession next year, 2) there's no chance the Model 3 gets delayed, and 3) there's no chance SCTY debt is worse than their management has let on?)
I think with #1 and recession, that we could debate all day and we probably wouldn't get very far. Nobody really knows what the odds are. So each person needs to make up their own mind.
With #2, again nobody knows if the Model 3 will be delayed. But I don't think I'm out of line when I say that I don't think production will start before August 2017, and I don't think Tesla will produce 100-200k Model 3s in 2017 as Elon says they hope to. I think it will be far less than 100k, as ramping a new vehicle likely will have more challenges than expected.
For #3, it's up to each person to make their judgment call on the trustworthiness of SCTY management and the quality of their debt/liabilities. Besides Neroden (and maybe a couple others), I haven't heard many people try to defend SCTY's debt/liability as non-toxic, and even with Neroden, I don't think he's really proven to me that their debt/liability is a non-issue to Tesla. I think it does affect Tesla, the question is how much. And that's difficult to know, especially when SCTY's finances are as muddled as they are.
