There was no HN edit thing going on. I did answer a "what is the point" with a "yes". I haven't yet decided whether I did this for rhetorical reasons or because it's early in the morning.
I was more responding to the second statement with, essentially: "Yes, it does default the 'autonomous driving' purpose of TACC".
Not that I have an answer per se -- if I still have to be driving, inputting the obvious strategy doesn't help me much because I already know how to do that. Collision avoidance is pretty much the only thing I have anxiety about, so saying it's not supposed to be used for that means this is a very very expensive mid-range sedan (to consumers like me).
