Why? It’s the right term. It’s fine to use the word “surgery” to describe both an open-heart procedure and an arthroscopic knee procedure, even though they’re both radically different types of surgeries. It doesn’t obscure the differences between them - it’s just the correct term for the type of thing that they are.
Both Tesla and Waymo engage in geofencing. Or will, one presumes - Tesla hasn’t actually started yet. They will do it in different ways, based on some different factors (and some in common), and for some different reasons - but they’ll both end up with geofenced operations.
