so tesla works everywhere except where it doesn't work?

No, the duality is:

Waymo works any time, except where it doesn’t.

Tesla works any where, except when it doesn’t.

There are some "where" issues with Tesla too. I have an intersection where it consistently can't tell that its view is obstructed. It'll just yolo into the intersection then pause (after pulling out into the lane) when it realizes that it wasn't actually able to see. Its consistent behavior, and seems to be a flaw with obstruction detection.

I might argue that every traffic light is sort of a where too. Mystery meat yellow light handling is scarily bad.
