AEB could become standard kit by 2030, and I'm curious how our ADAS actually behaves

Spent a bit of time reading the MoRTH draft notification doing the rounds this month, covered here on our newsroom: MoRTH's 19 October draft puts AEB on every new car model from 2030. Short version is that new car models would need an advanced emergency braking system from 1 October 2030, and it's still at the draft stage, so there's a comment window before anything is final (CarWale).
What makes this interesting for us is that plenty of Cretas already have the hardware. On my SX(O) I leave forward collision warning on but I've deliberately learned to anticipate the two wheelers that cut in near Hebbal, because the car and I don't always read the same situation.
So I'm curious. Those of you with ADAS on your Creta, has it earned its keep in city traffic, or do you switch bits of it off? And for the ones without it, would you pay extra for AEB on your next car or would you rather that money went into brakes and tyres?

Honestly I'd rather that budget go into better tyres and brake pads than a camera based AEB, at least till the system matures for our kind of traffic. Does FCW on your Creta give false alerts near toll booths or narrow ghat roads, or is it mostly clean now?
