its amazing how the label "troll" comes up when someone is caught out and in reference to someone who isn't agreeing with the name caller. Name calling just says "no firm basis of argument"

and the old favourite... falsehoods

~ do you change FOV's to 'zoom in' (which Btw YOU YOURSELF advocated earlier!)?
{wide angle, in reference, is for 90, which is wider than normal FoV 70... but in essence, user adjustable FoV alltogether)

A good headtracker and properly calibrated monitor, along with zoom (although some may consider zoom cheating, in fact zoom is the only thing really which could compensate for lack of peripheral vision/ depth of field limitations) would go far better for target/ plane spotting.
hmmm, yes.. I do believe I did say something different, and with the last paragraph (meaning normal FoV), it seems there is something we may be in agreeance on

Even duct tape can't fix stupid... but it can muffle the sound.
