Even Comma.AI, which is vision-only internally, still implicitly relies on the cars built in radar for collision detection and blind spot monitoring. It's just Tesla.

To be fair, that's because most cars aren't equipped with cameras for blind spot detection.

Thats because cameras aren't good for blind spot detection. Moreover, even for cars that have cameras on the side, the Comma doesn't use them. AFAIK, in my car with 360 cameras, the OEM system doesn't use the cameras either for blind spot.
