Tesla's two-piece trunk for the Model Y: Cost-saving brilliance or future headache?

Tesla’s refreshed Model Y reportedly features a split rear trunk lid. While some might celebrate this change for simpler, cheaper repairs, I’m wondering about long-term implications. Will this new design compromise structural rigidity or introduce potential points of failure down the line? Rattles, leaks, and alignment issues come to mind. Are we trading short-term repair cost savings for potential long-term reliability headaches? Current Model Y owners, what are your experiences with trunk lid repairs? Has anyone had issues with the current single-piece design? Your insights could help prospective buyers weigh the pros and cons of this change. I predict this seemingly minor design tweak will become a major talking point in the coming months. What do you think?
