Re: What's the point?
(a) Tesla, stop calling your effing advanced driving assist 'Autopilot'. It isn't.
Except, what does a plane autopilot do? Takes you to assigned altitude, direction and airspeed.
Why do people think that an "autopilot" in a car should do more?
I'll agree that it's not a great name, in terms of description of the system. But it's hardly over-selling its capabilities.
If people want to misinterpret that, then that's on them.
