Although it's comforting that this exact situation shouldn't happen again in an Uber autonomous car... there is no mechanism to share that learning with the other car companies. There seriously fucking needs to be a consortium for exactly this purpose: sharing system failures.
Also my problem with this is that a human death is functionally treated as finding edge cases that are missing a unit test, and progressing the testing rate of the code... and that really bothers me somehow. We need to avoid treating deaths as progress in the pursuit of better things
