I very much doubt AEB saves anything like as many lives as "studies" claim, for the simple reason the "studies" will not be able to account for the number of times AEB hauls on the anchors, unexpectedly, for no reason at all. This has happened to me 3 times in the last few years, fortunately with nobody behind me, and likely causes more accidents than it avoids. It will be good when it's production ready.

Would a few tens of rear-end car to car accidents where no one gets hurt be worse than a pedestrian getting killed once?

What about a few tens of rear-end car-to-car accidents, caused by inappropriate intervention by a poorly-calibrated system, where multiple people get hurt?
