"Tech is rarely supported with software updates after 5-7 years. Tesla Hardware 3 [(HW3)] is entering that zone. It is becoming obsolete and normally, it wouldn’t be a problem, but Tesla sold a Full Self-Driving capability package for up to $15,000 based on this hardware that it never delivered."

Didn’t the exact same thing happen with HW2?

To answer my own question, yes it did:

Tesla claimed the HW2 suite of sensors and computation provided the necessary equipment to allow FSD at SAE Level 5.
