I find it a pretty optimistic take when someone claims success of a safety system after conducting a test that basically equals 600 people using it for an average year worth of driving… Is it enough to support a pretty extraordinary claim that a fully self-driving system that will then be sold in millions of vehicles is now perfectly safe?

I don't think you're accurately representing how this will go. This is an incredible volume of data, and very encouraging. What it will justify is the ramp from 10k trips a week to 100k trips a week. As they go, they'll start rapidly collecting much more safety data, which will then be used to justify the ramp to 1M trips a week. As they roll out to new environments (snow, harder and new urban settings, airports) they're taking it slowly enough to collect strong evidence that it's a justified decision. And local regulators are scrutinizing this aggressively.
