The user that created that video is known to have preference for Tesla (based on Twitter posts and their YouTube channel is all about Tesla), the video may be biased.

The Consumer Reports comparison at the beginning of the video is Mercedes "Driver Assistance" vs Tesla "Autopilot". These are technologies for lane assistance, speed limit assistance, etc. "Advanced cruise control" is a better term for these. This video does not compare these.

Mercedes self driving system is called "Drive Pilot". Tesla's is called "FSD" (Full Self Driving)

This video compares FSD to Drive Assist, these are two different types of technologies.

I definitely trust Consumer Reports more than whoever these randos are, particularly because it was pretty easy to see the pro-Tesla bias from the beginning even without being familiar with their other content. And I would think anyone would have alarm bells going off given the unbelievable 44 interventions to zero interventions result.

You are really understating this. This account is one of the few accounts that Elon directly responds to on a regular basis on X.
