They're ****** brilliant...
Bosch / Hella et al have not yet developed the technology to the point where it's able to predict the future or read minds, and the matrix lights only seem to dim when the object/car/in question is within a certain range or carrying a certain level of light intensity, so yes, some oversensitive little souls seem to think they're being dazzled by them if they catch them before the lights have a chance to react.
This is especially true if the other driver is squinting behind dirty, knackered or corroded headlights of his own, that have degenerated over many years of apathetic (lack of) maintenance, bargain basement lamps and improper cleaning to the point where they can just about muster enough lumens to attract a randy firefly. In this case the driver in question will find anything brighter than Rudolfs nose a bit dazzling, and wrongly assume you're just being das Audi driver.
What I particularly like though is the hidden road safety advisory function. Audi it seems has taken a distinctly un-Germanic stance when it comes to helping ones fellow traveller, and with Matrix headlights the halfwits who drive about in the dark on sidelights or only one functioning headlight seem to get the full beams for rather longer. If only it could be adjusted to fire eyeball melting death rays through the ocular sockets of the sort of mouth breathing moose knuckle that thinks that fog-lights are a suitable replacement for headlights I'd be a happy man indeed. Perhaps
@DJAlix knows a few tricks that will assist me in 'correcting' their mistaken belief that a corsa with front fogs on is a dead ringer for an F40 when it gets close to bedtime...
