Maybe. We don’t know for sure.
You seem to frame that a bit like Waymo is cheating or padding their numbers.
But I see that as them taking appropriate care and avoiding stupid risks.
Anyway as someone else pointed out they recently started doing freeways in Austin so we’ll know soon.

Not sure how you read that. I'm saying Waymo was prioritizing safety.
Oh, sorry. I thought you were arguing from the other side, saying that Waymo only looked good because they were avoiding anything difficult.
Same argument, different sentiment.
