CoD, like any other combat flight sim early in development had/has and will continue to have bugs as well as needed optimizations.
Now for the combat flight sim history lesson...
Il2 in 2001 did not have contemporary hardware at the time that was able to max the sim and il2 circa 2001 sported fps in the 20s on a $2k pc at release.
That’s because it was designed with future hardware in mind (sound familiar?).
What was different for Il2 in 2001 was a direct competitor with huge pockets that it obviously was superior to (Microsoft’s cfs2/ and later cfs3)
What Il2 had in 2001 was a bucket full of bugs and potential, what it did not have was a "IL2 is broke fan club"

Your lessons are...ummm...wrong
Average score for IL-2 in 2001 = 9.2 It had bugs but it was a solid offering. I will be the first to agree that steep system requirements arent the devs fault or problem.
COD has way more issues to worry about than steep requirements and just a few bugs. It runs smooth on my machine but the AI,FM,DM, radio commands blah blah blah make it unplayable.
Did you say "early in developement"? 8 years is early in developement? MUWAHAHAHA! That was a good one...side splitter for sure.
