The regen built into pedals feels strange to people not used to it. As does the regen which activates when you lift your foot off the gas. This was not done because they're incompetent, it was done to create a car which is more intuitive to people not used to electric cars.

- vvanders 10y agoIf you've ever driven a manual car it's totally intuitive. Also incredibly easy to put behind a toggle(including creep) which Tesla does.
