Yes, but there were 500+ other Amazons 20 years ago that are now all worthless or close to it.
...
There was only one Amazon for those paying attention.
Hindsight is so easy. AMZN 20 years+ ago was mainly a bookseller that barely was doing $1b in revenue and was losing nearly as much as they were selling and was just starting to sell other products (Ebay and others had a big headstart on online selling for general merchandise). That profile fit the bill of virtually every dotcom company at the time. Best of luck.
During late 2002, rapid spending from Amazon caused it financial distress after revenues stagnated. Bezos borrowed $2 billion from select banks with only $350 million in holdings. After the company nearly went bankrupt, he closed distribution centers and laid off 14% of the Amazon workforce.
Again, it is possible TSLA does everything you hope and succeeds phenominally - but there is a very real chance they barely ever reach profitability or they go bankrupt.
