Seems like some nice changes for the most part.

I'm sure it's low energy microwaves but still not a fan of in-cabin radar potentially blasting the family. And removing radar for FSD/AP only to install it in the cabin is ironic. Cameras and speakers aren't adequate to detect a baby forgotten in the vehicle?
