> drivers might step on the accelerator for too long, increasing the risk of a crash

Wow, ok. So there's no actual issue with the accelerator pedal, it's just that people are too stupid to not correctly operate a vehicle and the need to be guarded from making mistakes by adding a warning to the software.

There's a lot of stuff objectively wrong in Teslas (see phantom braking, for example), but this isn't one of those things.
