Of course it's totally unrealistic and I can't imagine wanting to use it. Once you are used to flying with engine torque, flying out it feels silly and totally unrealistic.
Half the art of flying is leaning into the torque with your rudder while turning hard and trying to avoid a torque induced stall. If you remove that then there is nothing stopping you from pulling the stick as far is it will go and no chance of stalling. It so easy you can't loose. Then there is no skill to flying.
You might think that is fun for a little while but I think you will want to learn to fly with realistic physics as it's much more satisfying once you've learned.

Have you even read the thread? this is not a thread about realism or why some would choose to turn off torque its about a bug in the game

Yeah, so the point here is that there's a bug in the realism settings or in the input interface.

Some people have been reporting that all planes roll right, regardless of the direction their props turn. I haven't spawned every plane to find out if that's the case, but if it is, then this is not related to torque effects whatsoever.

I've read your post a few times trying to make sense of it, and the simplest response I can come up with is: Trim doesn't magically reduce drag and increase turn performance. Lots of sims have worked this out in the past, allowing folks to enjoy all the thrills and excitement of torque and gyro effects, and still be able to trim up their aeroplane.
