Nice review, thanks for putting this together. In terms of driver assistance functions, I find them all very useful and use them a lot. I set lane keep or assist (whatever it's called) set to reduced and find this the right balance. It allows you to cross lanes without a blinker without fighting you. Reduced is specific for this. I always use my blinker, but when I enter the highway on a Sunday morning and just want to punch it and get over to the left with no one on the road, I don't have to use my blinker to avoid having the car fight with me.

I also use steering assist a lot. Not to steer the car with my hands off the wheel, but to "assist" and keep me true to my lane.

ACC stop and go might be my favorite of all the driving assistance functions.
