This is misleading though - to read the title, you'd be wondering why the change in perspective. But if you read the article, it makes note of the fact that these are Tesla's statistics, not anyone else. Some choice quotes:
"The report they publish is highly misleading, and strongly suggests the answer is “greatly safer with it on.” That’s not true, and the most recent quarter numbers show it was probably slightly safer with Autopilot off."
"At first reading, the Autopilot number looks almost twice as good as the non-Autopilot number. The problem is, this is what you would expect, because according to research at MIT, 94% of Autopilot use is on limited access highways."
(And, although your argument doesn't hold any merit, I do think it's reasonable to call someone with the bio you provided a "robocar specialist.")
