I feel like you are jumping the gun here. We don't even have "FSD" yet to judge and yet it seems you are already concluding that Tesla has rebranded "FSD" as L2 and will therefore break its promises and prove that L4 "FSD" was a lie from the start.
Elon literally just said that the current EAP is FSD. I mean come on...
This validates @rnortman point which is, when you compare what Elon was saying to what he's obfuscating today, its completely different. As @boonedocks pointed out, he is trying to change the narrative of what FSD is so he can claim he delivered it.
Although unlike others i believe at some point his narcissistic ego will take over and he will say that its L5 and you don't have to pay attention and the accidents/deaths start piling up and there will be a war in the media (and he will try use the BS AP accident misleading stat which he created just for this to deflect blame) and the regulators will recall it and then he will be able to say like Trump, "the short enrichment NHTSA regulators and the fake news media are stopping me from saving lives".
This has been my prediction from 2016 and it still lines up
