The bitter lesson I think is a great way of explaining the logic behind Tesla's strategy. People aren't getting it.
Whether or not it'll actually work remains to be seen, but it's a perfectly reasonable strategy. One counterargument would be that the bitter lesson can be applied to LIDAR too; you don't have to use that data for feature engineering just because it seems well suited for it.
