Looks like Tesla has now started offering the option to lease a Model Y (Tesla Model Y now available for $499 per month through new leasing program ).
Anyone considering it?

Agreed, there's no reason to buy it.So you cannot the buy car at the end of your lease? If that is correct then it would effectively kill the idea of FSD on a lease.
You cannot transfer FSD to another car, and you know once Tesla takes the car back at the end of the lease, FSD will be removed before it is sold to somebody else like they have done before, unless they have a change of heart and surprise us.
This brings up the question of FSD subscriptions and their monthly cost, because with these leasing restrictions a FSD sub is the only thing I would consider. $8k for FSD over 36 months = $222 (not including tax on that $8k). So the sub price for FSD and being able to cancel that sub without too much restriction is going to be important if leasing over 3 years. Otherwise they are not going to get many sales of FSD on leases, which maybe they do not want and just prefer people to buy?

Actually, Tesla usually keeps (or adds) FSD on used cars they acquire for inventory resale to next owner.So you cannot the buy car at the end of your lease? If that is correct then it would effectively kill the idea of FSD on a lease.

If you lease a car with FSD, you don't pay 100% ($222/month) of the FSD cost over the lease term. The added cost of FSD on a lease would only be a portion - more like $100-$120/month.This brings up the question of FSD subscriptions and their monthly cost, because with these leasing restrictions a FSD sub is the only thing I would consider. $8k for FSD over 36 months = $222 (not including tax on that $8k).

I was responding to a post that was talking about cars TESLA takes back, not cars that may be sold or traded to and then re-sold by third party dealers. As I stated in my comment you quoted, "Tesla usually keeps (or adds) FSD on used cars they acquire for inventory resale to next owner." What goes on with cars that end up at third party dealers is something else.
