And all of these issues will be fixed in Tesla’s over-the-air software updates eventually I imagine.

You can’t ship new hardware over the air.
Tesla is never going to have a solid self driving system without LiDAR. Radar’s range is limited and cameras are simply not suitable for reliable depth perception and bounding box detection.

Humans don't have LIDAR, they have only 2 eyes and not even radar. Yet they're able to drive pretty well, it's because they have great software to power that limited hardware.

Yes, but Tesla has a bunch of cameras not two human eyes.
Edit: I wonder if a human can learn to drive a Tesla remotely better than another human with radar and multiple camera input by representing them in some useful way.

Remote operation is not yet a viable option for safely operating vehicles on most public roads. Our cellular data networks are simply too unreliable. What happens when a construction crew accidentally cuts the backhaul fiber for the closest base station? Or when the car is driving through a tunnel?

Humans can do a lot of other things such as hear car horns, reason about driver behavior, interpret road signs, and understand casuality of driving off a cliff.

Exactly my point, this is a software limitation and not hardware.

Humans can rapidly move their "cameras" 360 degrees, across multiple planes, with a wide field of view and at over 500 MP.
No car can come close to doing that.

Humans don't have even remotely close to "500 MP".

Why do you imagine that? When will they fix them all?

I think they would be violating the terms of the sale if they don't fix the issues present and roll out all the features described in FSD. Granted, that's no guarantee they will either.
So far they have made significant fixes and rolled out new features. As long as they keep that up they'll eventually deliver something reliable with all the features listed.
As to when, it'll probably be next season. No clue on which year though... :P
