They are all so easy to fly. You almost have to try to crash them. You have a better product now though!
Yes, after flying it a couple of times, I do agree with you. However, I firmly believe that if a tree is present, or a roofline, I could hit it!
So, I am glad I upgraded.

I'll say this after I already said "you almost have to try to crash them" 
Dont let the 360 degree collision avoidance lull you to sleep though. I did just that. Had an accident with my Air 2S where I was trying to get a certain shot for a client and I was about 2 ft below the canopy of a small tree in a parking lot. Everything was fine, no sensor alerts then boom. All of a sudden the drone flipped out and got really wobbly and fell about 5 ft to the ground. When I got closer, I noticed that there was a little twig hanging down and one of the props had knicked it and got caught in the prop. Ended up bending the front right motor mount and busting the gimble.
Sent it in to DJI and they just swapped the whole drone out for $0. I didnt even have the Care Refresh on that drone.
Point being, If I didnt have that false sense of security with the avoidance, I would have never been in that position in the first place.
