@inthehands first of all, thank you!
Now, reading through this thread prompted a related but different thought: the current generation of Tesla's self-driving AI eschews codified decision-making in favor of learning how to drive based purely on humans. Which should obviously be a bad idea if your stated goal is to devise a better-than-human behavior. But everyone is just closing their eyes and saying "well, I guess they know better what they're doing". They don't.
