The name debate might be vaguely relevant if the driver was a newbie who somehow was fooled by the name into thinking AP was something it's not. This was clearly not the case. Whether or not "most people" {{citation needed}} believe it means magical unicorns are carrying the car on their backs isn't especially relevant to the case.
I'm not even going to say whether I like the name AP or not, because It. Just. Doesn't. Matter. what the name is.

Yes, and No. Pilot Assist does not say "self driver". Which is what Autopilot means. And "Most People" means just more than half. Most of us are blessed with above average intelligence. But drivers' tests do not measure IQ nor a whole bunch of other stuff. My oldest daughter is a Down's syndrome, and she has a driver's license. She does not drive. But a whole lot of people jump in a car not knowing how to operate it.
