Yes, but historically the purchase of an option included the physical installation of that option and its associated hardware. Not just turning on parts of the car that are already in it, after you bought it.
To be clear, I don't think anyone is arguing that options should not cost money. We're arguing against A) recurring subscriptions, and B) paying more money to activate features already built into the car you already bought.
Do you feel that Tesla’s charging for self driving is unfair?
Exactly. At a certain point luxury features stopped becoming standard and that’s associated with them being cheaper to install in every car but them deciding to sell it anyway
