Let’s not get pedantic. They are part of the “enhanced autopilot” package.

If these were called "cruise control", "adaptive cruise control", and "Blue Cruise" would it matter if the article said "cruise control" but was referring to "Blue Cruise"?

Tesla's names for these things are "Autopilot", "Enhanced Autopilot", and "FSD Beta".

At the very least, the names matter so that we can all agree we're talking about the same things.
