Well, one can design and make and test implants that'll still work 50 years after there's no more Elon.
But! Today's "progress" is about increasing functionality and performance, not reliability. And such implants will be made only when there's taboo on unreliable stuff in such critical areas in 3 different dimensions - company getting murdered legally is the first, its management getting murdered physically is the second, nobody in their right mind buying such is the third.
