Why whould he drop it? He's not wrong in this case. How a plane "feels" is very important in game, on that we can agree. There are times when some subjective decisions need to be made, but they should never be made without testing the results against the known objective data. Given the variables available every FM in game is going to be a compromise.. every time you alter something to try and get something "dead on" you will cause another measure to be further off than it was before.. its a balancing act.
I think you need to differentiate constructive criticism of Freddy's FM's from his amazing work on the 86F cockpit and in other areas.
