Oh I hope you are right. I just don't understand it though.
I think everyone is filtering what is really going on through a Dominate Paradigm. The guy who figured this all out was Steinmetz. It's described in the first hour of Eric Dollard's History and Theory of electricity.

Meanwhile, I keep bumbling along—I see the current episode of EVTV addresses cases of transmission failure in conversions (and Teslas?), and suggests that they're built to absorb power that 'spools up' over ~500-800ms, while the electric controller can force full power in ~5-10ms, leading to shock failures. It's at 1:25:30 as part of a typically long-winded discussion of sizing motors and multi-gearing vs single speed.
