Unlike sunny California, I feel like people in regions with varying weather conditions are going to find themselves reaching to the top of their cars trying to clean the lidar when the wipers fail to do an adequate job. It'll be super fun when the wiper fluid nozzles freeze up and the wipers get frozen. Perhaps the lidar dome is heated as well? Winter is going to suck for people with lidar and without garages.
I would still expect a good redundant system will suck less for people with anything, than a system with no redundancy.
Whether lidar exactly is needed, who knows. But winter and the lack of redundancy in AP2 certainly is a reasonable concern.
