I think people expect too much, my real world experience is that on secondary roads at 100 to 120 kph with any sort of real bends in it you can just about forget using ALG as it can't track the radius of the bend quick enough due to lack of "thinking" time. On freeway type roads it has no issues at the same speeds (and even greater but let's not go there) in my experience and I travel both every day with very little true metro driving. To me the main advantage is if I am in a line of cars travelling at a reasonable speed it will hold the distance to the car in front and track the road very well with just about zero input from the driver on both secondary and freeway type roads.
If anyone is familiar with the road from Thirroul to Stanwell Park (Google it if you are not) let me tell you what I have found. It is a winding twisty road with lots of very tight corners and damn all straight bits and in slow 50kph type processional traffic my car self steers and self regulates the distance to the car in front for the whole length of it, this I have done numerous times when Bulli pass was closed. If I drive that road at a faster speed the car would be off the road at the first corner and yes I have tried it and no I didn't go off.
