We want the SIM to be able to do the most. That doesn't mean that everyone should have to handle all of it, not with the way things are going.

Ditto with things like icons option. With IL2 series I am frustrated without when targets turn invisible as I approach to guns long range. Somebody's idea of realistic can be a disaster for someone else on different hardware.

Does anyone have to get into the other parts not simulated and also not compensated for except in options that may or may not be present? I hope not.

If the pilot could feel and react to what I can't feel at all then I don't mind the virtual pilot doing the automatic or less so the action toggled off. But not required for anyone, option on or off.
