Of course there are reasons to use a safety driver for some trips. The point is that they won't do even a single trip without a safety driver. They've done some PR stunts - but they won't give a single real demo to a single real journalist without a safety driver. Even with a safety driver, a few weeks before they "launched" a "commercial" "self-driving" service, they wouldn't let journalists pick their own destination.
