I see this brought up a lot, but I don't think it's really an issue. It's misleading in a very technical sense, but it's so misleading that nobody is mislead.

I see this brought up a lot, but I don't think it's really an issue. It's misleading in a very technical sense, but it's so misleading that nobody is mislead. Just like nobody thinks the "Magic Eraser" is actually magic. I fundamentally just don't think anybody is out there actually believing this thing is L5 full self driving, especially after all the warnings it shows you and the disclaimers when you buy it.
The problem here isn't that people think they don't need to pay attention because their car can drive itself and then crash. The problem is that people who know full well that they need to focus on driving just don't because fundamentally the human brain isn't any good at paying attention 100% of the time in a situation where you can get away with not paying attention 99.9% of the time, and naming just can't solve this.
