I have heard mechanics say the problem was that Toyota did not give the brakes priority over the throttle, which other manufacturers do. Sounds like that is true and the patch addresses the situation.
To say this does not add to safety is to deny there is a possibility of a problem, as a car can stop more quickly without full throttle than with. If the patch had been in the California Lexus, the result would not have been so tragic.
