No-one cares about these minor glitches in the "mod" version. People either ignore it or do not even notice, after all you mainly look outside the cockpit.
HOWEVER given the huge amount of whining that goes on in these forums, imagine what would happen if the same minor problems occurred in an official patch. There would be a whine and troll fest like never before. To make 6DOF official you would need to fix all the cockpits and that is a huge job.

Which is why it should be an option. People who think minor glitches + 6DoF is best can have it, people who think stuck position + 2Dof is best can have it too.
I noticed most of the glitches, and had no issues with them. I think the range of translational head movement should be limited by the sim, however.
