Because the tech has inarguably failed. It's all about the lawyers and how long they can extend Tesla's irresponsibility.

See, I would much rather have this discussion vs another one about advertising and names.

We're seeing progress. Ford is expanding features on Blue Cruise (in-lane avoidance maneuvers I believe). I think Mercedes is expanding the area theirs works in. Tesla added off-highway navigation in the last year.

No one's reached full autonomy for more than a few minutes or a few miles, but I wouldn't say there's no argument there. In fact, I'd say they're arguably making visible progress.
