You're absolutely right. I think Elon is very acquainted with the hacker ethic, he's written a lot of code in his life. People see the celebrity businessman that he is now and they assume he hasn't written code.
He's a hacker that worships money more than open source software. There is a spectrum of how hackers balance riches and fame and being true to their roots of open source. I'd say Linus has done a very good job. Perhaps the best job you can do. Elon is probably at the other end of the spectrum, but not quite as far as the Google lads are. They're at the other end of the pool.
