Yeah the “disagreement between sensors” is largely overblown by Tesla when they were trying to rationalize cutting parts.

Somehow everyone else has figured it out, and even Tesla knows how to do it and have done it for years.

It’s pure bunk that’s used to cover for other decisions and now gets parroted around

I could believe that for radar (and lidar) but not for ultra sonic sensors which cost close to 0.

I mean, this is the car company that decided to skip rain sensors for cost reasons.

I own a Tesla but I also acknowledge that Elon will claw every last dollar he can to increase margins even by a few cents.
