I guess we have to agree to disagree, then

I actually do agree with your point that
the actual car, seduces (some, perhaps many) people into trusting the apparently impressive capabilities beyond what is actually 'safe'.
My point is that that is a human issue, not a technology one, just as texting while driving is a human issue and not a problem inherent to mobile phones.
Which does not mean that phones should not be designed to cope with that problem of course, if at all possible; and, Tesla will be upgraded progressively to cope with human wrong behavior (starting from next to be release software v 9.0, actually!).
I also want to comment on this:
Self-driving cannot be a 'solved problem' if the necessary sensors and compute power are not yet available.
What that means is that Tesla knows how to solve a problem, in software terms. They need a powerful enough computer for such technology to be fast enough to be useful. Consider that we're talking of a very fast response to the environment. This is the core of their cooperation with AMD, actually.
Knowing how to solve a problem and not having a powerful enough computer to perform all calculations is a common situation in science, actually.
