What about lane assist and follow technology in other cars? Do they also fall in the category of thing that replace attention?

IMNSHO yes. But not necessarily so drastically -- a VW (to pick an example I've seen evidence of: https://www.thedrive.com/article/10131/the-volkswagen-arteon...) will ping at you if you stop touching the steering wheel for ten seconds or so, and will actively monitor to make sure your attention is on the road. A Tesla won't, or at least wouldn't in 2018, to the point where someone was convicted of dangerous driving having climbed into the passenger seat while driving along the M1: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-beds-bucks-herts-43934...
