They've had stereo vision for over a year.

What would stop someone with that binary and steps from installing it? If person is Handy with software, would they be able to do it?not true. Zero hacking required to install the firmware once you have the binary.

That is correct, so far Autopilot has used mostly the radar for TACC and radar has this inherent limitation (at least the radar they're using, and automotive radar in general really).
Well it's a fundamental design flaw but it can in theory at least be overcome with the cameras. It's just really hard to overcome with the cameras reliably; it's a big problem. Now if they had lidar it would be much easier (still hard, but easier). They may need to upgrade the processing power even on non-FSD cars in order to get an adequate vision solution that can both stop for stopped cars and not have excessive false positives on signs and overpasses. Also they will clearly need a lot more time to develop the vision systems; there has not been much progress made on this recently. If anything I think we have regressed slightly on false positives; since the high-profile accidents (slamming into fire trucks) I think they have turned the dial to be more sensitive, leading to more false positives and phantom braking.
They do not have stereo vision. Even if they did, the cameras are only a few inches apart, which is much too short of a baseline to do anything useful more than a few feet away.
Ran outside to my driveway in my boxers to connect my car to my mobile hostpot. I hope the neighbors didn't see me
Thanks goodness our eyes are three feet apart or else we might not have depth perception.
You may be right that FSD is several years away but I think you might be slightly off about the reasons why. Musk's tweet doesn't say that they are struggling to get drive on nav to work on limited highways. Actually, if you watched the videos, drive on nav seemed to work pretty well on limited highways. So the issue is not that they can't even get it right for limited highways. If FSD is years away, it is not, as you say, because they can't even get the limited cases right. The issue is that they want to get it right for more than just limited highways. If you look at Musk's tweet he says it is "Extremely difficult to achieve a general solution for self-driving that works well everywhere.". Note the emphasis in bold. They are looking to expand drive on nav to work everywhere. That is why it is so difficult. So if FSD is years away, it's because they can do the limited cases just fine but need to make it work for all those edge cases too.
If anything, Musk's tweet reveals his ambitious vision again. He is not content to release a self-driving feature in a very limited case like many other auto makers have done. He wants the self-driving feature that "works everywhere".
Musk's tweet also seems to imply, at least to me, what I have been thinking now for awhile. "drive on nav" is intended to be the bucket that all the self-driving features will go into. That is why he calls it a "general solution for self-driving". It is called "drive on nav" or "navigate on autopilot" because it is intended to be that "drive from A to B" that makes FSD work. So right now, it can do auto lane changes on the highway, but I suspect that Musk also wants it to do auto lane changes on other roads as well and eventually be able to make turns at intersections, stop at red lights etc..
The bottom line is that "navigate on autopilot" is a critical feature that has the potential to make or break "highway self-driving" so Tesla needs to get it right.
Remember that the composition of Tesla’s fleet is very heavily tilted to AP 2.5 at this point. The tiny sample you’re seeing by looking at Teslafi might just be representative of that fact.And still only going to 2.5. Tesla really likes spitting in the faces of 2.0 customers. They aren't even updating 2.0 to 36.2.
Again, sounds to me that even though Tesla limited drive on NAV to only certain highways they are still finding it difficult to reliably offer the feature in their limited scope.
Was he able to update to 39.5 for you after pushing 36 first?
That depends on what you call hacking. Yeah sure you don't need root, but you still need to do some computer work to give it to the car.not true. Zero hacking required to install the firmware once you have the binary.

My AP2 car has been on 36.2 for weeks.
They've had stereo vision for over a year. Only AP1 seems to slam into firetrucks. 2.0 lusts for gorepoints because it couldn't properly identify navigable road paths. 2.0 is improving, 1.0 seems stagnant.
My car has all the latest hardware and it tried pretty damned hard in August past to run me headlong into fully stopped 2-lane traffic on the Autobahn [ as described here, Phantom braking, etc. overflow from 2018.32.2 thread ], so AP2.5 certainly still had Firetruck Super-Destruction mode in v.2018.28.5. Don't know [ but severely doubt ] if this situation has improved much in the more recent software updates? Problem being it is quite rare and risky in natural highway driving to properly test this danger scenario.
2.5 uses a different radar than 1.0 and 2.0. it is still being fine tuned by Tesla.
I cannot help you with the binaries.Go on...
I presume the binary is floating around online as well?
