I think FSD is one of those things that's going to be a lot more work than they initially thought they were taking on, but I expect the technology to mature a lot in the coming years. It used to be for highways only and now can handle city driving in stop-and-go traffic, so i don't really consider FSD to be false-advertising in the sense that it is "full self driving" in normal conditions. At least compared to the highway-only mode that it had before.
That video very clearly shows that it's not really safe to try to use it in abnormal conditions like snow. It's got a long way to go and I think it's still very much a beta feature from the looks of it, and will probably remain that way for years while they work out the kinks. I'm glad they are trying to develop this technology, but I understand that it's a pretty risky venture for them (liability is a big concern in the event of an accident, and that is just one of several concerns).
