I genuinely have no idea what you're on about. YouTube is full of videos of Teslas driving by themselves in cities, highways, parking lots, construction zones etc. To claim that this is something "most high end cars can do" is a blatant lie. Tesla is the only company in the world that offers a system like that.
There is nothing Drive Pilot can do that FSD can't but there's a ton of stuff FSD can do and Drive Pilot can't. Yeah the Tesla driver is still ultimately responsible because FSD is level 2 and Drive Pilot is level 3, but it doesn't take a genious to figure out why it's easier for the company to take responsibility for something that is essentially a train rather than something that gives you full freedom to go anywhere.
Musk is not sending his best here.
