We don't want something that merely drives as well as a person. We want something that does better. To that end, if it is easier to build sensors that don't have to train so hard on just 2d images, why wouldn't we?

would be _awesome_ today, depending on which person we're comparing it to anyways... :)

And if in 15 years it could do much better, great.
