The argument seems to be that running the test with FSD rather than Autopilot lead to much better results:

In a relatively unsurprising turn of events, the Cybertruck was successfully able to detect the wall, slowed down, and came to a stop. The Cybertruck was running FSD 13.2.8.
That seems like a valid point. Saying that you're testing Teslas self-driving car and not actually testing FSD but opting for the less advanced Autopilot feels misleading.
Okay FSD is better than autopilot. If we put aside Tesla-specific marketing terms, and you had an unnamed car company advertise a feature called autopilot, would you as a customer expect the car to stop when met by a wall? I wonder how it would fly in court.
