If it needs supervision, why is it still called 'full' self driving?

Fucking lawyers.

Ambitious marketing. I think they're still closer to self driving than competing systems, but "full self driving" is definitely a misleading name for what the software can currently do. We are gradually seeing more drives with zero disengagements, so the technology is slowly getting there.

Zero disengagement is exactly what the drivers should be doing in its current state and why it shouldnt be called full self driving.

Ah, I think we are using term "disengagement" slightly differently. A disengagement generally refers to a human driver disengaging FSD as a manual override, not a human driver being disengaged with the task of driving.
