It's not really not, though. Look at Whole Mars' videos. They are curated with hand picked routes. There also could be defined mapping involved like the 2016 video.The thing is, it's hard to fake a live stream in real traffic conditions. Anything can happen. And something really bad could happen.
Elon is taking a risk. So he must really think V12 is solid.
Not that I'm saying that will happen, it's just what people will say if it's a good drive. Also remember that Elon's version of FSD is and has been different than what we get. It's more assertive and doesn't require input. Even at v11.
My point isn't to be a naysayer, just that it will do very little to sway or discourage either side, regardless of outcome. We see people excited over Whole Mars curated drives who defend FSD getting in accidents or running red lights/stop signs and we also see people putting down Whole Mars while highlighting the opposite. Rinse and repeat.
And I don't think Elon is really taking a risk. People said he was when he gave out 3 month trials with FSD, but he didn't allow access to Beta, so there was minimal risk. I think him and his team are smart enough to minimize risk in location and routing.
