The quotes are not around all of it, only “one foot braking’, the quote is actually there for you to see, hence why i thought they were your words.
Are you being deliberately obtuse?I said:
As posted elsewhere (from 2019.32.12.4 release notes):
"The “Keep” setting continues to use energy recovery braking at speeds below approximately 5 mph (8 km / h) to maximize cruising range and reduce brake wear"
"The “Keep” setting continues to use energy recovery braking at speeds below approximately 5 mph (8 km / h) to maximize cruising range and reduce brake wear"

The new software update is going to give us 'one pedal driving' mode too, so the brakes will be used even less for road driving.
Are you being deliberately forgetful? It’s not worth the debate, but please don’t make out you’ve not said something you have when it there for all to see

(I won't bother to point out your confusion between "one pedal driving" and "one foot braking")
Note the use of quotation marks in the last sentence...

Are they swamped or are they just fulfilling LR and Performance orders as priority as they’re more profitable?
It’s also a good way to reel in the impatient buyers who just have to have one now, car sales departments are masters at manipulating their customers this way and I’m pretty sure Tesla are no different.
Can you order a SR base model by calling up like you can in the USA do you know?

There’s been long range available to order from inventory all week so maybe it’s just a simple case of trying to put people off the cheaper models.. a ‘of course you can have an SR+, you’ll have to wait 3 months, or spend a bit more and have this one tomorrow”

A colleague of mine has been told January for a LR ordered back in March.
There’s most colours and trims of LR available from inventory right now. Bit of a mix of wheel size and tow bar tooIf your colleague is in a hurry it sometimes helps to give them a nudge if their spec comes available so they match it up with inventory.
I think they play that game with lots of face down cards and they pick a random 2 up to see if they match and if they do then happy days but more often than not a matched pair are sitting there undiscovered

The 3 still has a 12v battery which it needs to work...
Wish us both luck.
Some bits from the bloomberg survey, part 2..
https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/2019-tesla-mode...
Very interesting graph , 1% battery drop per 10k miles.
And far fewer quality issues on new cars recently.
