"Translation: all the times Tesla has vowed that all of its vehicles would soon be capable of fully driving themselves may have been a convenient act of salesmanship that ultimately turned out not to be true."

Another way to say that, is Tesla scammed all of their customers, since you know, everyone saw this coming...

they changed it so it's either full self driving all the time or not

No they didn't...you can still activate regular adaptive cruise control without any of the FSD nonsense.

Yes, I said that....

So you now have to have a second profile* for cruise control and lane keep without FSD.

No you don't need a second profile for that, you can just pull down once on the right stalk to enable regular adaptive CC with lane keep instead of twice for FSD. This second profile requirement is complete nonsense.

The "pull once for FSD" that removes the regular adaptive CC is a voluntary option in the settings, you can just disable that. If you have that enabled and don't like it, that's your fault not theirs.

Is there a reason you are so defensive?

I just find misinformation really annoying. Like, There's loads of reasons to hate on Tesla and Elon Musk, there is no need to make up stuff that isn't true, it just takes away from the actual lies and issues and drown out valid criticism.
