> during the period where they decided on this disastrous and dangerous vision-only approach that has resulted in multiple deaths

To be fair, it was a direct decision from Elon due to covid supply chain shortages of radar and ultrasonic sensors. Not from engineers (as is common at Elon companies)

But Andrej deserves some of the blame because he was too busy sucking on the $TSLA stock teat to say anything

Yes, the decision was definitely made well before covid. It's just that musk and fanboys couldn't stop crowing about it during the covid shortages because that temporarily made camera-only sensing look like a good idea.
