This needs a broader context. On some fronts, software is amazing from a reliability perspective. It doesn’t wear out and can be updated easier. On the other hand, it creates new failure modes and interaction effects that are much harder to define, test, and mitigate thoroughly. Anyone who pretends software is wholly good or bad is probably wrong.

Who said I am ignoring all the great things software does? What is this comment even.

A recall is a recall. Every time Tesla has one these recalls apologist come out and try to change what the word means. It is a RECALL. It isn't a big deal.

Fair. I don't think it needs a recall if it doesn't change the way the car operates. Perhaps there is a new class of change notification between "release notes" and "recall" that needs to be established.

'I don't trust those with the knowledge, expertise, and experience in the industry that created the system' is a heck of a take after your 'pro progress' previous post.

Shouldn't a recall imply that this software update is so critical that a real danger was possible?

I don't think they are ignoring anything. One of those amazing things is cars. This is what it's called when the gov't mandates a software update for cars because of a safety issue...

I'm not sure why that's controversial
