I think the parent comment was making the same point as you. We, but mostly Tesla, should be educating people on why autopilot doesn't mean it drives itself in all situations. While buying a car[0], the furthest the webpage goes is:
> automatic driving from highway on-ramp to off-ramp including interchanges and overtaking slower cars
And while it does all of this very well right now, there still is that piece of text at the bottom:
> The currently enabled features require active driver supervision and do not make the vehicle autonomous.
Honestly Tesla is doing the bare minimum here to have plausible deniability, but the text at the bottom really should be the same size as the text above it.
Nobody other than pilots, engineers or enthusiasts knows the subtleties of how aircraft autopilot systems work.
Every other person on this planet knows it to mean "fly the plane by itself". And would expect a Tesla car to "drive by itself".
