Without the E2TS the pilot still can engage the autopilot passing 200ft
Basically the system enables an automatic engagement of the autopilot passing 200ft.
Without it the pilot may engage the autopilot by manually pushing the autopilot button passing
200ft.
I'm pretty sure it does more, because that would not reduce the take off distance.
