Agreed.I believe GM and Ford are doing exactly that by restricting it to mapped highways.
I prepare to brake (e.g. hover foot) when the situation looks like it could be needed, and relax my leg otherwise. I'm hoping adaptive cruise control reduces how often this is necessary compared to standard cruises... But I don't know yet.Also, by that same argument about latency, all driver should hover their feet over the brake whenever using traditional (or adaptive) cruise control.
Steering correction seems more likely to require a low latency response than braking. On roads where cruise control is generally safe to use, you and the ADAS have a lot more time to sense the overall forward path while driving and can get ready to brake. Whereas you may have a lot less time to correct a deadly steering miscalculation (e.g. into a parked vehicle that is mistaken as a lane) or to safely maneuver around road debris or a large pothole.
