I drove a rented Nissan Murano and I found the lane keeping and adaptive cruise control to be excellent. If the auto supply was in better shape, I’d have seriously considered buying one.

It’s such an irony that Nissan features are almost entirely development in spite of Tesla, but they’re far better at actually sciencing it and shipping it to be delivered today.

Sciencing? Is that like engineering or designing?

Just curious as to word choice here, does engineering not include the design of technology?

It's of course not a real word, but my mental definition I was thinking was problem discovery/definition is science and clarifying/solving is engineering. Nissan is shipping NoA and demoing dynamic obstacle avoidance, latter of which I thought is towards discovery.
