I'm hitting 1200 amps and 340 v with my "most of a Volt" pack

I expect that

(1) Jack will be able to pull a lot more out of the Tesla pack - for a short time and the pack probably won't last 200,000 miles being treated like that

(2) Jack will be able to get a LOT more than 600 Hp out of that motor - with the same provision - for a short time and the motor probably won't last 200,000 miles being treated like that

Tesla has to be careful - they are expecting 999 out of 1000 people to be able to get 200,000 miles

We - as "Enthusiasts" are willing to accept much worse results - in exchange for more power

That is so neat!
You could fit that to almost anything

It is tidy, but the fit is only easy into rear-wheel drive vehicle with a trailing or semi-trailing arm rear suspension; the motor will interfere with the control arms or subframe of almost any multi-link or double-A-arm suspension not designed specifically to accommodate this drive unit. That design is obsolete now, but was standard practice for rear-engined vehicles (especially VW) and for a few decades of rear-drive front-engine cars with IRS... such as BMW, Mercedes, Datsun, Toyota, etc.

Disagree completely
The advantage of that design is that you only need mounting points for the cross beam
It would be a doddle fitting that in the back of almost any front or rear wheel drive car

All you need is lots of cutting discs and the correct attitude
