You've become conditioned to consider a "nudge" to be lane assist helpfully pushing on the steering wheel, to move you toward the center of the lane. Your muscle memory reacts to such a nudge by accepting it, allowing it.

30 years of driving has conditioned me to consider a "nudge" to be an indication that something is pushing on the car, moving me away from where I intend to be. My muscle memory reacts to such a nudge by immediately arresting that push and reversing it.

No, I haven't been conditioned into anything. 38 years of driving taught me to be able to tell what is happening because I'm aware of the road. I know I didn't just drive off the edge of the road, because I know where the road is and I know where my tires are.

I've had lane assist in my truck for 2 years and I learned what it feels like. However, it's clear that different manufacturers implemented it differently. All I can say is, it appears Honda got it right.
