I think when it comes to training that it CAN be the issue and quite possibly the difference between a successful and unsuccessful outcome. Eagle will eventually transition to AQP so more realistic scenarios are encountered in the sim. Why go fart around doing maneuvers that aren't being applied to a line flying type situation. This is also the theory behind the FITS program that you are seeing TAA manufacturers switch to.
