> ... as far as I understand revolve around the users not actually paying attention as they should. Because they're given the wrong impression that they can not pay attention. Several paid with their lives (or with the lives of others) for it: accident that'd have been prevented had they kept their eyes on the road and their hands on the steering wheel. I mean: either it's an auto-pilot or it isn't. Auto-pilot means I can take a nap. An auto-pilot which must be baby-sitted isn't an auto-pilot.

Well the car constantly checks if the driver is paying attention, that's not really giving the wrong impression, is it? It really reinforces that it's not meant to be completely independent. I do agree that "AutoPilot" and "Full Self Driving" are false advertising and shouldn't be used. But the driver has a responsibility of knowing what their car can and can't do. I'm pretty sure even those killed drivers were aware of the limitations but just chose to ignore them.
