A car that can brake when you aren’t paying attention or nudge your car back in your lane when again aren’t paying attention is simply not a bad thing. Should standard on every car and truck.
Level 4 now is a different discussion.

The times I have used autopilot, it has worked great. It's a good system when properly used, which is mostly for highway driving.
People are trying to make Level 2 technology do what it can't do. They use it on local roads, use defeat devices, etc because they hate the act of driving. The system does not know that a curve cannot be taken at 40 MPH and needs to slow down. It will take that curve at 40 MPH and off the road you go.
To the only defense for these people misusing the system is that Tesla's naming scheme is highly deceptive. Full self driving is hardly full self driving.
