Yeah, I was thinking about that video when I posted actually. Maybe other car makers put a little heating element in their lights as well and Tesla just didn’t. Either way, the big issue is the shape. On a traditional car it’ll slide off as soon as a little bit is melted, the cybertruck just has a shelf where the snow can accumulate.
It seems like every Tesla is just Musk discovering why traditional car makers do things the way they do the hard way.
In the past with incandescent lights they would easily melt the snow off, I’m guessing that’s not the case with modern LEDs?

That seems like it could be a factor.

Yeah a shelf in front of the lights is some big brain
