But can it be solved by throwing less sensors at the problem? Cause that's what he's been doing. Removing sensors from the newer versions that were in the older ones.

Drop the cameras, add lidar instead. That's true 3d vision, which no amount of cameras can replace.

Someone told them the problem was just "too many variables", so they figured by taking away sensors, there are fewer variables. Therefore, better self-driving.

But people drive with just eyes, why can't cars drive with just eyes? Someone in Tesla accountint probably...

Elon has literally said exactly this so many times. I think it is probably possible to make a car drive with just vision, but you make the task monumentally harder by not having things that ground you in reality, ie. lidar.
