MSFS2024 Gripes

I use MS2024 with a reasonably fast PC with a 1GB internet connection. Most flights are short at many places in the world viewing POI's, photogrammetry cities and scenic areas. I enjoy high frame rates up to 80 fps and have yet to lose any settings. I'm reasonably happy with the sim so why gripe?

Often when changing to a new plane or location the sim ignores the new choice and selects the previous plane or location used or a location to a distant continent half way around the world. It might take two or three attempts for the sim to use my selections amounting to a loss of 15 minutes. Asobo should be able to fix this eventually.

When changing to a new detailed location the stutters are significant. For the first half minute 2 second stutters follow one after another while the sim populates my PC with scenery. Very unrealistic take offs and frustrating. Since streaming is used to populate new scenery there seems to be little hope this problem can be remedied.

I dislike the complexity of the Controller interface and fear having to reconstruct my settings. Not so easy for a 90 year old with declining memory.
 
Anyone remember when sims and everything else came with an instruction book? Now we are faced with a complex sim without instructions as to how anything works? A lot of unexplained features, the descriptions of which sometimes use made up words. My greatest frustration has been the new user trophy which I have been awarded five times now, requiring complete reconstruction of all of the control bindings.

Not only that, we are effectively being used as beta testers. The difference is that we have to pay for the bloody thing.

....and to put insult to injury this thing is more like a moving target: The things you figured out yesterday don't work like that after the next update / hotfix. Now what you gonna do with your (RT)FM ?
