I think they insist on relying on vision-only because thousands of customers with vision-only vehicles out there have already paid for "full self driving" - so admitting their mistake would be ruinous financially.
Sure but this way, non of the Teslas on the road will ever have full self driving with just vision alone.
IIRC Andrej Karpathy said in a video stream that they gave up on adding lidar and
radar and went vision only because it polluted the sensor fusion data.
