I disagree about this being tangential. This article focuses in-depth on a single fatal accident with fancy animations. It's the job of the reporter to explore how other vehicles protect against this and how other regions like EU mitigate loss of life. This is what you call "fact-based" and "unbiased" reporting, that WaPo claims. Otherwise all they would be doing here is exploiting someone's tragedy to drive a pre-ordained conclusion, also known as "opinion". If the article is really about marketing issues with autopilot, they are many more avenues to explore, like how they're actually not allowed to call it "Autopilot" in Germany (try to find the word "Germany" in this article).
