Blind Spot Warning

I believe it was 5-star crash safety ratings.
Those can't be added aftermarket.

OK, looked to see exactly what they are going for, in the FAQ it is

The Slate is designed to achieve a 5-star USNCAP crash rating and includes features

US NCAP is US New Car Assessment Program done by the NHTSA. They do 3 types of tests, and give stars for each.
They are now showing 4 recommended driver assistance technologies, Forward collision warning, Lane departure warning, Crash imminent Braking, and Dynamic Brake support.
Each car listed has an overall star score, a star score for each test, and whether they have the technologies meeting performance criteria and whether they are standard or optional.
I am not seeing anything about whether the technologies are factored into the overall star ratings, but for every vehicle they are listed right there after the crash ratings.

I believe for the 2027 model year they will start including the driver assistance technologies in the star rating, so you would need at least some level of them (not sure how much) in order to get a 5-star rating. That was originally supposed to be for 2026 model years, but has been delayed to 2027 already.

Not getting a 5-star rating overall because they left out driver assist tech wouldn't contradict the 5-star crash rating goal.
