Why can't Waymo's autonomous taxi service in San Francisco be considered FSD? There's the geographical limitation but it's operational and autonomous to an advanced degree.

I wonder how consistent that decision is with regard to the other platforms they advertise on. If you Google 'extremism on Facebook,' you'll find a flood of accusations from mainstream media outlets.
