And the car is dramatically less capable than what you think in regards to L4/L5 ability.
I love my car, I love what it can do, I enjoy testing(safely) its limits with every update....but it isn't at L4 yet, not even L3 really. Now, can that change in an instant with some kind of breakthrough, sure, but that is a pretty big jump that would need to happen, at this point in time anyway.
Edit: I will further say that a Tesla could be L3 in some limited ODD scenarios, but that would require clawing back the relevant capability in non ODD areas. Also, a Tesla could be L4 if in addition to the above, it actually did its own DDT fallback to get into a reasonable minimal risk condition like pulling into a parking lot, or pulling off onto the shoulder and stopping, etc, etc.
Outside very limited ODD's Tesla isn't really close yet...in my opinion.
