I think you're confusing the next incremental step toward FSD with the end state of FSD. Tesla changes its marketing materials and web site copy all the time, but the Master Plan Pt 2 post (which outlines what you're alluding to) remains unchanged. Additionally, just three weeks ago, Elon was on the Ark Invest podcast claiming FSD will be safe enough for a human to sleep at the wheel by end of 2020[1]. I don't think Tesla's FSD plans have changed.

And four or five weeks ago Tesla had a filing about building more stores.

It seems a lot of plans are changing.

Elon claiming that in a podcast isn't a promise like this text on the order page.

According to the vehicle purchase agreement and Tesla's lawyers, nothing on the order page is binding anyway (and ditto for Elon's claims). I agree they have changed the "promise" they are making to new purchasers on the page you've cited, but I don't see evidence that they are scaling back what they intend to deliver vis a vis FSD.
