Article of the Day: Tesla's Bioweapon Defense Mode

This is apparently a serious thing, though Elon Musk (Founder of Tesla) is notorious for being a bit off the wall. Last night Elon Musk unveiled the new Tesla Model X electric car at an event in Vegas. Among features such as Ludicrous Mode, which would make the car about as fast and accelerate as quickly as a Porsche 911, a huge curving windshield for much more view, 'falcon-wing doors' that slide up and don't need nearly as much space to open as a regular car (for squeezing into the tight spots), huge amount of trunk space (front and back trunk, due to being electric motor), the car boasts a 'Bioweapon Defense Mode'. Elon Musk swears that it is a real thing, and would be accessible through a setting in the huge center console. Though the air cleanliness is apparently already hospital room standard due to the 10x larger than a normal car air filter, would be able to filter out airborne bacteria, viruses, pollutants, smog, and other particulates that may occur in case of attack or "if there's ever an apocalyptic scenario of some kind', Elon Musk said. Do you think this is useful? Perhaps in some Chinese cities, San Francisco, where the smog can be unbearable. Or is it just a simple setting hyped up for publicity?
