Re: underline text --- Are you conflating AP with NoA? AP is just Autosteer+TACC so centering and staying behind. No decisions.We'd need someone that has disassembled the firmware to comment. But basically AP as far as I can tell is the combination of lane keep assist, and TACC. They all behave the same to me, and I frequently use TACC rather than AP in areas where AP just makes terrible decisions. TACC also fails to operate when the AP computer crashes, which would again seem to indicate that it's using the same inputs and is almost certainly the same system.
TACC - I used this in the suburbs or on roads where the majority of the traffic wants to go > speedlimit+5 (ie. +10
AP - I use this in all suburb driving and basic highways (non-divided)
NoA - I use this on most interstates and roadtrips. AP + decision making (ie. off ramp auto-exits are handy for day dreaming or if in conversations with passengers)
