Tesla Smart Summon is deemed safe enough & came just in time

Some argue that Tesla Smart Summon should not be released because it is “beta” software. That is not a strong argument. According to Lifewire.com:

Beta refers to the phase in software development between the alpha phase and the release candidate phase. Beta software is generally considered “complete” by the developer but still not ready for general use due to a lack of testing “in the wild.”

Some software like Gmail and Google Maps were in beta for many years while used by hundreds of millions of people. Calling a software product beta software is a way to lower expectations and make users more careful in using it. Beta software also has the promise of an improved version in the future.
