Your car has seatbelts that constantly beep and make you look down to see why? Your helmet constantly nudges you to tell you to watch the road? Your gun safety switch makes a loud noise every time you’re about to fire a gun, reminding you to shoot safely?

Learn to discuss things without hyperbole and straw-men. My Tesla had so many alerts in a short drive that my passenger asked if the car had an issue that required repairs.

I guess in your world, looking away from the road and at a screen to read safety messages promotes safety.

I'm not using straw men or hyperbole. I'm merely pointing out that there are arguments which are structurally the same as yours which are absurd.

I'm happy to learn you don't embrace these absurd arguments - it's hard to guess what an internet stranger will claim.

Sounds like you need to ask Elon to fix his terrible safety implementations.
