I see, not every frame-less door has this mechanism.
In the case of Toyota Solara, how does the glass fit with the seal on the A-pillar and roof? The roll-down mechanism is required because the glass on those doors have to be "inserted" into the seal.
You are correct that per capita doesn't matter to the global climate but it's only relevant because regulations are enforced on a nation-based fashion.
As a Chinese national living in the U.S., I would like my fellow countryperson to have the same standard of living as an average American does. Unfortunately this view is not shared by many Americans, including Obama [0].

Care to elaborate why you think the comments on this rover are nationalistic? Or, do you feel the same way about comments regarding NASA or JAXA achievements?
"The Snapdragon 888 wins in terms of CPU performance while the Kirin 9000 seems to be the one with the better GPU and AI capabilities. However, there are other factors to consider such as power efficiency where the Kirin 9000 already does excellently well as shown in our review video. So until there is an in-depth device-to-device comparison, we can’t say which chipset is the clear winner." [0]
BioNTech's vaccine is already bought and to be manufactured in China [0]. Implying it's China behind this incident is a little too late, don't you think?
Another angle for car companies to develop their own tech might be (claimed) competitive edge.
Not many car manufacturer would market the airbags, breaks or tires as superior. However, car makers that develop their own engine constantly brag about how efficient or powerful their cars are compared to their competitors (e.g. Mazda and their Skyactiv, Toyota and their Hybrid).
Google engineer not working on Waymo, opinions are my own.
I think "driverless" here is different from "self-driving", i.e. 'Waymo uses “driverless” here to refer to operations in which the ADS controls the vehicle for the entire trip without a human driver (whether in the vehicle or at a remote location) expected to assume any part of the driving task.' at page 5 of that report.
I think this driverless mode is only available to public on Oct 8th [0].
Saying Simplified Chinese makes less sense in terms of etymology while only providing a handful of examples is cherry-picking, since over two thousands characters are simplified[0].
I can provide a few examples where characters are more "etymological" in Simplified version vs in Traditional: 國 vs 国，黨 vs 党
