> The owners manual even explicitly states you are always the operator under drive pilot.

Just a straight up lie. The manual states:

> The person in the driver's seat when DRIVE PILOT is activated is designated as the fallback-ready user and should be ready to take over control of the vehicle.

> As soon as the driver steers, accelerates or brakes, the responsibility for driving and safe operation of the vehicle, including compliance with traffic regulations, will be returned to the driver.

On other words, the product can just return control to the user at the moment when there is a problem, so they don‘t take responsibility.

IDK how you got that from what I quoted other than just wishcasting it to be the case. There is a 10 second handover window after which the car goes into an emergency stop procedure if the user hasn't taken control.
