This reminds me of the time I was distantly following a Waymo car at speed on 101 in Mountain View during rush hour. The Waymo brake lights came on first followed a second or two later by the rest of the traffic.

Better reaction times only matter if the decisions are the same / better in every case. Clearly we are not there on that aspect of it yet.
Deciding to crash faster, or "tell human to take over" really fast is NOT better.
Whether thats worth completely throwing away LiDAR is a different question, but your argument is just obviously false.
