> They do expect you to change that posture if Autopilot does something you think is dangerous, though.

Their lawyers and their marketing departments are contradicting each other.

Their legal department will always insist that your hands must remain on the steering wheel. If your hands are not on the wheel, and the car crashes, they will mention this clause and implicitly blame the driver.

Their marketing department (like this webpage) say "This car can drive itself!".

And the car itself? Well it has a sensor that detect hands off wheel situations (plus point from the lawyers' "cover our asses" side), but it allows a few (/lot of) seconds of that situation before it warns you (their lawyer must've once screamed "Why the fuck does the sensor tolerate this situation!").

For a stupid analogy, it's almost like a bar owner advertising his bar as a smoke joint, but saying "you're not allowed to smoke in here, and I can spot anyone smoking" but still tolerating a few minutes of lit cigarettes.
