Yeah it's nonsense. It's an after the fact reframing of a decision that was made for other reasons. Lidar + camera is better for this kind of problem. It's because current lidar are too expensive and too fragile (1-2year life) to put in a production car, not because they aren't much better. If this wasn't the case he'd definitely be using them. Elon cannot use a lidar in a Tesla even if he wants too so he's coming up with some FUD to dismiss any completely reasonable questions in advance.
