This is just so frustrating. It's not meaningless, it's measured data. Could it be better corrected? Could there be other analysis done? Sure. But data is data, and the effect is extremely large. Cars with AP enabled aren't just safer, they're like 5x safer!
You can't wave that away with a innumerate statement about confounding factors. You need to counter data with data, and (despite millions of Teslas on the road now!) no one has it.
Is it really so hard to just accept that... the system is safe?

Measured data that is used to make a comparison to data not gathered under similar conditions aside from the difference being assessed or structured so as to support controlling for the irrelevant differences is, in fact, meaningless for that purpose. It may have meaning in other contexts, but when it's offered to justify the comparison it cannot support, it is, in that context, meaningless.
