Sure it is a fact that Elon Musk predicts they will have robotaxis in a year. It is not however a fact that Elon Musk advises the drivers to drive carelessly.

Yes it does. In a parking lot. At parking lot speed. While you are not in the car.

If by autonomous you mean it can automatically come to you in a parking lot then yes. If by autonomous you mean you can sleep behind the wheel while
it is driving in the streets then it __definitly__ does not imply that.
> But these are conflicting statements...
No they are not. One is about operation in a parking lot. One is about future functionality/value of the product. And one is about the current functionality
of the product.
> people think that Tesla is fully autonomous and thus get into accidents like this
Citation needed. I'd say it is more likely that they are not using the car as intended, not that they mistakenly think their car is fully autonomous.

Not sure what your point is here. So they are damned if they do damned if they don't?
> but if people are still doing this then Tesla isn't doing a good job of making this clear
People don't always use things as designed. This is not exclusive to Tesla cars.
> They simply hide it inside the legal documents
Not true. It is on the first page when you search for Tesla FSD. And I am pretty sure the warning is shown to the users at different steps before AP can be activated.
