I did a quick search and didn't find where Tesla states that. I did find these pages:
Introducing Navigate on Autopilot
Introducing a More Seamless Navigate on Autopilot
Look at the language used in those write ups: "driver is responsible for", "driver supervision", "driver should always be attentive", "provide drivers with the opportunity to check their surroundings". There is a ton of language stating that the driver must remain attentive and in control, and must watch what the car is doing. No problem there.
Nowhere in those write-ups is any language describing that the driver must take control or intervene in the course of normal operation. The implication is that the driver must intervene or take control if NoA does something wrong and must do so quickly. Well, OK, that's a fair write-up, it's still a level 2 system. But the fact that I have to intervene and take control so often means that NoA is doing multiple things wrong, and doing them way too often. That was not the intent of this software. The intent was to make it NOT do something wrong except very rarely.
If you don't agree with this, then how often, in your opinion, it is acceptable for NoA to do something wrong? When I paid $4K per vehicle for this software, what error rate was I buying? 1 error per 30 minutes? 1 error per 10 minutes? State the number you think I'm entitled to. Then state where Tesla stated the guaranteed error rate value. (Rhetorical: They didn't).
