I disagree. Yes, viewing the world thought a computer screens present s issues, but those issues are solved by having an adjustable field of view. I have a button on my throttle that i use to toggle fields of views. I use wide field of view for broad observation, and a narrow field of view for close scanning. Doing it that way is a heck of a lot more realistic than having obvious artificial sprites appearing over top of objects. That's basically like having a radar alerting you to planes you wouldn't otherwise have noticed. There's absolutely nothing realistic about artificially highlighting aircraft for us.
