I may be incorrect but I believe I read somewhere that if a new car is fitted with cruise control now then it MUST be adaptive cruise. Consequently I don't think it feasible (unfortunately) for Tesla to change it to "dumb" cruise. At least within the EU & UK (as we have followed this too)I've noted this before but I will again: Tesla HAS implemented dumb cruise control and exists in the software that ships today, because early Model 3s were available without TACC. I think precious few buyers actually opted for that configuration, but it was out there. So, I can't speak for the Y, but I suspect it would be trivial to offer it as a stop-gap on the 3 until this all blows over. Of course, the optics of "admitting defeat" and rolling out dumb cruise control wouldn't be great for them, but... not my problem.
Big brother (ie the nanny state) wants all control taken from the individual in all walks of life. No one is to have common sense now or in the future as Nanny will take care of it. An unfortunate consequence of the prevalence of the "I'm going to sue you" road we have joyfully charged down headlong!
