How successful do you think BMW will be if Audi, Lexus, and Benz are offering cars you can drive or drive themselves, and BMW is the only one not offering it? You're basically championing BMW going out of business.
All the car companies are going to have to adapt. BMW isn't Ferrari. They're not even Porsche (who, incidentally, will also have autonomous cars). Is the 2021 M4 GTS going to offer Level 5 autonomous driving? I doubt it. But the core models? Absolutely. It would be asinine not to. It's a good thing the guys running BMW are less short sighted than the keyboard warriors complaining about them on blogs.

The fear is that this tech will have so much momentum that either it will be mandated or that the only offerings someday will be it - like manual transmission cars are becomjng more rare. You may love it, but understand that others may not, and theres no need to silence the minority
