That because tesla induced them to think it was level 4 or 5 while FSD is level 2 (like most Toyotas are ) but with a few extra options.

And as long as there is a need for a human to endorse responsability, it will remain at level 2.

A) Autopilot and the FSD beta are two totally separate systems and FSD wasn't even available as an option when one of these crashes occurred.

B) where's the evidence that these drivers believed they were operating a level 4 or 5 system?
