Going to paraphrase this as "yes, it is better in every way but in this 2% corner case that almost no one will ever encounter so it makes me nauseous to read reviews seriously comparing it to neanderthal-generation cars which manage to cover that 2%."
I've got a better comparison for you. Has the owner of [any given model year] BMW ever sued BMW because [any given model year plus 1] was that much better for the same price? We've gotten used to this with computers for years, it's frankly about time we got this pace of development with cars. I mean, real jealousy for the next year's generation of the same car. Tesla will create that. Who else is creating that?
