These two phrases are strange to me in the context of OP:

    intuit the behavior of other humans through the theory-of-mind

and:

    If AVs consistently act "unexpectedly"

Are you implying that the three specific incidents quoted by the OP are acting unexpectedly? I hope not. Most good, aware drivers would do the same. If you disagree, please provide alternative driving actions that you consider expected. And, would the safety outcomes be better? Unlikely.
