Read the 'updated' version, it explains that the user was doing nearly everything they shouldn't regarding this feature. http://www.theverge.com/2016/5/11/11658226/tesla-model-s-sum...

That said, sure it should be able to stop on it's own, but I think they couldn't have been more clear that this is beta and the driver is still always responsible.

In my view the driver is just as liable if the put on cruise control and don't pay attention. Is it the manufacturer's fault the car slammed into a vehicle in front of them while cruise control was on? No, I think any reasonable person will be saying it's the driver's fault.
