It seems like there is a huge disconnect between people who know about FSD from using it and people who know about FSD from things they read on the internet.

I have FSD, I use it every single day. I love it. If every car on the road had this the road would be a substantially safer place.

I'm astonished consumers are still paying fifteen thousand dollars to be guinea pigs for this bullshit. No car that currently has tires on the road is going to let you fall asleep in your driveway and wake up at work.

Taking the bus is pretty close, just don't sleep on another passenger / through your stop.

After having a Tesla with Enhanced Autopilot for 4 years, I decided it wasn't worth the $7,000 extra and stuck with ordinary autopilot.

It's just too damn glitchy to be worth thousands of dollars extra.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

But you can fall asleep and wake up at work with public transportation.

Noone is waking you for your stop lol.

When I had the luxury of taking public transportation to work, I did wake someone up once.

I personally can't fall asleep on trains.

Hell, right now I'd pay a few bucks to disable AP so I could use the old school cruise control. I still don't understand Tesla's opposition for making that an option whether you have AP or not.

Only if you can even get a seat, and don't have to change buses/trains.
