Have to disagree with you here. My car self-parked much better prior to joining beta program. Sure, maybe now the car will theoretically "see" spots without cars on either side, but in my experience the car does a horrible job recognizing spots, cars or not. It's no contest.
Not clear what you are talking about here-- the beta doesn't change parking behavior at all currently.
The old system (using ultrasonics only) couldn't see spots at all without a car on both sides, and only if you very slowly drove past the spot so the USS could see the space between the cars- and it worked very slowly and poorly and hadn't been improved in many years.
Then starting with the refresh S, but now on all (vision capable) cars (regardless of being in the beta or not) it uses vision, parks much faster, does not require other cars around, and can ID spots based on painted lines.
If yours doesn't do any of that you should open a service ticket- because "joining the beta program" shouldn't have changed anything about your experience with autopark.
