Since your folding top is operating correctly, re-indexing the windows shouldn't have any affect.
A number of owners have described the same symptoms as you (I had this issue several times) and it was initially corrected by putting the folding top through two or three complete cycles. Since...
Says the guy who has been pouting since I pointed out how slim the chances of you EVER bringing an affordable 3D-printed headlight to market. I'm still waiting to see that product. If you can pull it off, I'll be stupefied and admit I was wrong. However. . .
Your only consistent behavior...
Way above my skill level? LMFAO. You don't have the slightest clue regarding my skill(s) level, proving you have no idea what you're talking about, which isn't surprising --based on your previous posts. Not sure why you feel the need to publicly embarrass yourself with non-factual...

Having Traction Control ON (the default condition) is not the same as having it active. When TC is active, ACC disengages (as it should.)
The intermittent fault with the previously-mentioned connector
will set TC to active, disabling ACC.
This might be the cause of your problem; a wheel...
This condition is rare, but not unheard of.
You are correct, enabling Traction Control will disengage Adaptive Cruise Control. If the intermittent fretting connector condition under your steering column (many posts on this problem/dealer fix) is present in your vehicle, it could signal that...
Prior year models had a mesh/foam net stretched across the front of the trunk to protect/cover the front tonneau cover mechanisms.
