And to put this in perspective, the graph shows a regular cycle of: peak, shutdown to improve the line, higher peak, shutdown to improve the line, etc. And there's a peak timed for the end of every quarter.

Animats always has the most possible negative thing to say about Tesla, and this comment is typical for him.

That may reflect the problems being upstream of final assembly. Maybe they need more than a week to accumulate enough parts to run final assembly for a week.

This occurred to me as well. It's still 'getting there', but without knowing whether the line is shutdown exclusively for improvements, or if there's some fudging involved in there as well, it's hard to say how far they are from being 'there'.
