I'm not downvoting you, but I disagree with your line of reasoning.
Just because YOU don't see why a feature might be useful does not mean that it isn't useful. It just means you don't see a use for it.
Similarly, while cutting the fuel on break application might be useful or even beneficial in the case of a normal / particularly bad driver (slamming down all the peddles in an emergency) it does mean a drastic change in the human/machine interface. I would say that just like ABS is a good safety feature and airbags / restraint belts are good safety features, the vehicle should CLEARLY MARK these features. Their automation may (EG as in the cases of baby seats) be counter-intuitively less safe in circumstances.
