That's only a "happy path" attitude.

How well would a moncular path with headlights moving toward it at night operate? How about in rain, snow, or fog?

I'm not saying LiDAR is the only way, but I don't see a reason to use this as a solution.

I'm not saying this isn't valuable. I used to work in 3D/metaverse space, and having depth from a single photo, and being able to recreate a 3D scene from that is very valuable, and is the future.
