>This is different from Tesla (or any other automotive advertiser), where an ad that shows the car driving itself might reasonably be considered a claim that the car can, in fact, drive itself.

Everyone knows you can't tow the space shuttle with a Tacoma in any reasonable sense and that only a very skilled driver spending a day taking a crack at it can get a Land Rover up a ski hill in an elegant way.

That won't stop people from playing dumb in order to prop up some farcical point they tried making online and got called out on.

As someone who lives on a dirt road surrounded by airbnb's near a national park seeing lots of tourist traffic, I think you have an extremely flawed understanding of what "everyone knows" WRT their vehicle's capabilities.

Right! And emphasis on playing dumb: the GP’s argument requires the courts to not understand the difference, when they clearly do.
