In accounting, a loss is an asset - as it can be used to reduce future (paper) profits to pay less (actual) taxes. This wasn't a deliberate strategy though, but rather the automatic application of applicable regulations (mark to market).
Tesla didn't sell any BTC so in reality they didn't lose anything. Also, they weren't 'trading' bitcoin - they bought and (mostly) just held.

It's all depend in how the "loss" was added to the accounting system of the country, some times you can deduce tax from this kind of lost, and in the overall situation of the company, it could be ok if they lost this amount here but can deduce tax from the building process of the cars.
