"Full Self Driving (Supervised)" is not actually full self driving. "Supervised" means that the driver is responsible at all times.

So since there is a driver watching, I'd imagine the bar for getting it licensed would be quite low anyways.

A people who will accept a bait-and-switch like rebranding something that’s not full self-driving as “Full Self-Driving” can be conditioned to accept other forms of bait-and-switch. Case in point: the recent election

It’s got that “100% Beef(TM)” vibe. Like we’ve decided that the word “full” doesn’t mean anything anymore.

It's obviously not "full self driving" because I don't have a driving license and cannot use a Tesla to drive me where I need to go. Same for people that can't drive, like the blind.

If they were truly autonomous cars, people wouldn't need a driving license to use FSD.
