"Full Self Driving" and "vehicle is not autonomous" is still confusing to English speakers, IMO.
> Before enabling Autopilot, the driver first needs to agree to “keep your hands on the steering wheel at all times” and to always “maintain control and responsibility for your vehicle.” Subsequently, every time the driver engages Autopilot, they are shown a visual reminder to “keep your hands on the wheel."
If you bought this car without realizing how it worked... I sympathize, but the info was provided.
If you enabled this feature without understanding how it worked... that's now on you.
How does that saying go? You'll never convince someone of a fact that their income depends on not knowing?
When someone writes code that is very difficult for anyone else to grok it's the code writers fault, but when someone has a misapprehension of a feature of a car, because it's on the tin SOMEWHERE, it's the fault of the customer who often times is unsophisticated in terms of vehicles and tech within vehicles.
The only reason to label it incorrectly is to falsely advertise.
I believe this is invented outrage, their actual capabilities are made very clear.
Nobody would be griping about the name being misleading if it was marketed as Tesla Tartan or something.
Full Self Driving was chosen to describe its intended capabilities exactly.
Was the SLS misleading before its first flight in 2022 because it had yet to launch to space? Were the James Webb or Hubble falsely advertised during production? "They want us to call that thing a 'Space Telescope' when it's obviously a pile of mirrors on the ground..."
There's a massive difference between "I want to build thing x -> I'm building x -> I have built x -> Pay me for x -> Ok, here's your x, go ahead and use x" and "I want to build x in the future -> pay me for x -> here's x, go ahead and use it -> I am building x -> I have built x (I may not be able to build it at all, btw)".
