Engineering reliability is primarily achieved through redundancy.

There is none with Musk's "vision only" approach. Vision can fail for a multitude of reasons --- sunlight, rain, darkness, bad road markers, even glare from a dirty windshield. And when it fails, there is no backup plan -- the car is effectively driving blind.

Driving is a dynamic activity that involves a lot more than just vision. Safe automated driving can use all the help it can get.
