As I understand, phantom breaking is a result of inconsistent sensor inputs from forward radar, specifically with things like highway underpasses. This is one of the reasons Tesla is moving to a full vision stack. Currently the new vision-only update is only out to FSD beta testers. Hopefully the phantom breaking issue will go away once highway autopilot is updated.

No, it's because their world model stability & consistency, and sensor input integration into the model is shit.

Of course it's not easy. But nobody forced them to release this half-baked steaming pile.

Full visual won't fix the fundamental problem. At best it decreases the cost and energy requirement (but then they'll likely use that for more processing anyway, to try to squeeze more information out of the remaining sensors).
