"Survey participants were asked questions including whether they thought it was safe to take their hands off the steering wheel"

I think this is misleading, Autopilot never told it's safe enough to let hands off the steering wheel. To this extend of course there is no difference than other solutions.

What's misleading? If they think it, they think it, and the intentional implications of advertising are just as important as the words it uses.

Tesla itself used to only mandate that you touched the steering wheel every quarter hour.
