I'm not sure what to tell you, basically nothing you've said is true.
There wasn't 'some skepticism' about EVs, very few took them seriously back then.
During the roadster the main narrative was it couldn't be done and if they could do it nobody would buy them.
For the Model S there were constant reports of Tesla not having the money to build them etc. the same thing was said repeatedly about the Model 3 (they would never be able to manufacture enough, they didn't have the money, they were going to fail).
Tesla pulled EVs from the future to now in spite of it being a very hard market to enter with massive up front costs. Along the way they also built out a charging network and made huge improvements in car software and getting rid of the dealership model.
The next shift is autonomous driving and the pivot to it is because any car without the tech when it happens will have negative value.
I'm not claiming that there's nothing to fear because they haven't gone bankrupt yet, they could still fail - but you're not arguing in good faith and people have been saying the same thing for years even though Tesla has proved them wrong at each previous stage.
