Sure it's more gimmick than practical, I say good on Tesla showing the world it can create a car that's just as fast or faster then cars 5x it's price.

there's never a time and place on public roads to let untrained soccer moms launch like roller coasters. besides, everyone that gets in that car is going to want to check out ludicrous mode, that doesn't lend itself to right time, right place at all. that's a right here, right now attraction.
it's beyond nonsense to market that car as extreme and honestly, there was no need to, and it didn't even work really. Musk's announcement of ludicrous mode, and i believe even insane mode, did nothing to the stock price of Tsla, nor did it create an uptick in sales orders.
i understand not all cars are supposed to be practical, but marketing a practical family sedan as ludicrous is dangerous and fruitless.
