The original movie for Dune did these hand-generated cube-like designs which were supposed to look like video games of the time.
The idea being that poorly rendered shapes looked super futuristic in the 80s because that's what computers could handle. It wasn't poor rendering in the movie, it was the director's design choice, because the intent was to come off computer-like and futuristic. I think Elon is still stuck at that point, and it fits based on his age.
