That's just not true, on average it's a great free source of accurate information. It is, as with any other source, still advisable to double check against another source.
WRT the slats, the flight model and the slat animation are not necessarily linked. You can have the full benefit of the slats in terms of stall speed and handling, without ever seeing them move. Other way round is also possible. You can most easily check if they are in the FM by determining the maximum power off lift coefficient.
