My lane assist sounds simpler than yours Peter. All mine does is beep (pleasant sound) if you drift over the white line.
On this Honda I havent used the Cruise control, dont think its got the IQ feature? simply as we have made so few long journeys since the Pandemic.
Another asset but I suppose the trad' drivers wont like it is Automatic. One less thing to be bothered with as we get older... you are always in the right gear at say a busy roundabout. Also, hill start assist comes with it, no roll back, foot off brake to stop any forward creep, hit gas and away you go. I could still do handbrake starts when I had the van but it is another aid / improvement for many.
Dont need the auto lights and windscreen washers but my wife likes them. She is often out at night and a click beep of the key and the road is lit... just makes her feel safer.
And how many would be without Sat Nav?
Certainly cars have come a long way and I shall never want one that drives for me but lots of the aids help a lot. Dont think the totally automonous car will ever happen.
