> Capability implies that the car can do the thing (software included)

It’s made clear that isn’t the definition of capability they’re using [1].

I am not a fan of the Autopilot branding. But I struggle to see how someone buys FSD capability, realises their mistake on delivery and is then unable to get restitution through either a return or a resale.

[1] "the facility or potential for an indicated use or deployment," emphasis on "potential" https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/capability

Sure. In the same way that I have Olympic "capability".

You may. Not everyone does. That doesn’t mean everyone capable of Olympic greatness achieves it.
