IMO, it's the 'leapfrog' effect. In fairness, it's already available on the TLX, but you have to go to the Advance to get it. The CR-V only offers it on the top line Touring model. I think I read somewhere, that to get a 'Top Pick+" rating, the lineup must offer active safety (among other things). I'm guessing that by making it available on at least one model (trim), they satisfy that requirement.
