Yes I’m a private pilot and I enjoy aerobatic planes with lots of direct feel. This is a robotic air taxi - what is the relevance of tactile feedback?

And your premise is more broadly incorrect. The f16, which was developed to dogfight, has had fly by wire for decades. The fly by wire allowed far greater control.

Yeah every pilot I know loves fly by wire and once the auto industry gets it right more people will get to enjoy it.
