Make it too many arcade options then you just make it too easy for those who simply don't want to learn and spend too much time catering to the arcade crowd rather than focusing on actual simulation.
Right, therefore it's an option that can be disabled. I might add that performance tests in Il-2 have been done with arcade cockpit, just because it gives TAS values. I would really love not just to learn the gauges, but also all the buttons. Try some radio usage in DCS Black Shark and you'll know what I mean . I still use the Win+Home to start everything, just because it's quite hard to learn the startup procedure. But it will be an achievement when I finally can do it by heart. WW2 planes don't have all these avionics, but still it's not just about pressing I and then pushing the throttle forward to take off. I want to do everything a real pilot had to do in the cockpit.
