Yea, it’s possible they are going all-in on vision only right now because LIDAR is just too expensive right now to roll out to their fleet. If they get it to work without LIDAR, then that’s great. But it’s possible they’re building out a system that can quickly pivot to LIDAR if necessary and when LIDAR costs come down to make it economically feasible as well.

More importantly if the main part they’re working on is the “what to do with situation X” code then adding additional sensors for more accurate data later is relatively easy.
