I am pointing out that your point, that tech should cater to how people generally operate, does not make much sense. It is flawed from the start, because people's general or natural operation can still be wrong and must be taught correctly, and that just because something is a natural operation does not mean it is how it should be. People have fundamentally flawed misconceptions all the time and it is foolish to cater to them, beyond improving UX where possible, but some things are simply not technologically possible to only improve via UX and not without teaching.


Very well then, O Fount Of All Wisdom About Humans, how does one go about teaching humans to operate self-driving cars that will drive for hours at a time with no problem, but 1% of the time will encounter an issue that the human needs to react to in under 3.5 seconds or crash and probably kill themselves and someone else?
