Since when has autopilot, especially in 2019, ever had the ability to deal with “cross-traffic” situations? It always has been a glorified adaptive cruise with lanekeeping and has always been advertised as such. Literally the same as any other car with LKAS. Tesla’s self-driving software wasn’t released to the public until 2021/2022.
Meanwhile about 120 people died in traffic related accidents today in the US.

Correct.
and has always been advertised as such.
Wrong.
I've been mad about tesls autopilot since the very beginning. It makes the endeavour for automated vehicles look bad.

You're holding it wrong.
