Another pain in the neck !! Default for AVH is OFF

This is (sort of) funny, I'm like @SilverOnyx , I hate the AVH for most scenarios.

I immediately turned this off (my driveway is steep-ish, and I have to do a back-forth maneuver, and AVH holds WAY too long when I'm doing that, and releases with a big POP, almost alarming), but it won't stick-off, for me. Sometimes when I back out it's dis-engaged, maybe 60% of the time, but the other 40%, it just kicks-in, despite the s/w setting being OFF, still, clearly there's a default-firmware-bug here.

I probably wouldn't have quite so much disdain for it, if I could set it and have it stay off, but that's just not in the cards, at this point in the firmware cycle. The 2020 is a REALLY buggy implementation, as a 30+ year s/w and h/w engineering guy...
