Not that much, honestly. They've already switched tech stack multiple times. They recently removed radar from new cars, the 'camera only' stack hasn't been tested that much. They also have mostly tested on and built for

This seems like an easy excuse for what happened here. If you can't maintain those 450 bridges, then don't keep 450 bridges. Remove 150 of them and maintain the other 300. You can't just ignore 450 bridges and hope nothing go
