The issue isn't about what you want them to do, the issue is that you are expecting a bunch of non technical people that have no vested interest other than monetary gains through staying in office to create some sort of regulation that notionally protects people from themselves based on the supposed advertising of a piece of tech, and that is an incredibly silly position to ever take for multiple reasons.
Tesla clearly outlines what the autopilot is and isn't, and is not forcing people to use it. If you don't wanna beta test, don't use it. Simple as that. No need for any regulations in the first place. If someone thinks that autopilot means they can go to sleep being the wheel, and they crash, its is 100% their fault, not Teslas, or regulators. You don't blame mountain bike companies because someone decides to take their bike of a jump, go tail up nose down, and smack into the ground, even though their advertising often shows people doing big jumps on said bikes. Be consistent in what you believe.
Also, as far as self driving goes, Waymo isn't as much as pushing for safety as it is burning through VC cash in a giant scam. It started 13 years ago and has zero products. Meanwhile, startup shop Comma AI managed to get self driving highway autonomy system out in 5 years that you can actually buy, on a fraction of the budget.
