Arizona is big, yes :)
But on average it has better weather conditions, let's take smaller Phoenix area, L5 there won't have to deal with snow (I know it can get small amounts of snow, but don't think it's a problem). Driving in Alaska or Tibet mountains is different feat than driving on good roads of Arizona or south of Spain. So I think L5 can start developing in those favorable areas first. But if it works in 99.99% of times, it's ok to have remote drivers for 0.01%, of course it's not for situations when "it started to rain, get in control while car is doing 100 km/h", but for situations when car is stationary and can't understand what to do and need human brain to help it for a short time. If this will let me to use autonomous taxi 10 years earlier, I'm ok with it.
