Exactly correct. The more complex the sim becomes the faster we run out of availble keyboard mappings and like i said before, not everyone can afford to shell out extra money for touch screens or that nice CH pad with customizable key layouts.

All i'm saying is, as long as there is sufficient complexity in the new sim to warrant a list of new controls modelled, then give us an extra option to manipulate said controls without having to buy extra peripherals or remember a dozen more key mappings. In the end, if i need to press ctrl+shift+alt+t+1 to switch to my no.1 fuel tank i feel it's no more unrealistic than having to look down and select it by clicking a switch with the mouse.

^^^ Agreed.

I think blanket statements one way or another are probably simplistic.

A bunch of those things, like arming guns, switching fuel tanks, etc, are not done very often, and simply don't warrant a dedicated control, or god forbid multiple sticksets.

That way you can keep all the most used stuff close at hand.
