Tesla: Highlights from our upcoming Spring Release below

So u think but Tesla holds back a lot of hidden features or the techs all of a sudden discover a magical work-a-round that opens the trunk. All these features are already built in and they hype everyone up with “coming soon cool new features” when in fact they were already there, lying hidden waiting to be activated.

Software is ever-evolving. It's not that these features were "already there". You act like they intentionally limit the features.
The more likely explanation is that they don't wait to release everything they're working on at the same time, i.e. a true model year like most OEM's. They release what they have, and over time, as they want to add a feature, they code it, test it, and when ready they release it.
Sure the hardware is there, but software is always going to be the bottleneck.
I think it's rarely a case of "holding back" features that are ready (maybe near a true refresh).
It's certainly not any "magical" tech work-arounds.
It's simply a case of new code being written for features they either, did have the idea for and just needed to write the code but could launch w/o, or new ideas they come up with after launch, and then work on the code.
