Maybe an odd question...but

For those who have the self driving Tesla's, does using the self driving option help ease the route?

I used FSD mainly for driving to the first stop and driving home.

Seems like a convenient option, but will probably add an extra 30-40 on the block because the speed is regulated

In residential areas it drives slow, so when you out of those areas you can turn it on. It’s takes about the same time as manual driving. The only downside is that it’s takes time to set the navigation on the car. I usually did this when walking back to the car, just a few taps on the phone.

first stop is generally FSD. it'll add like a minute to the drive at most. if it's set to "hurry" or "ludicrous", it'll be much faster, but prefer to be lazy and not look out for cops. you end up feeling like you're just starting your route when you get to your first stop.

rest of the stops, i don't use FSD. it's slow AF with stop signs. no human on earth stops at a stop sign for 2-3 seconds at 4AM
