You need to remember that 3D modellers don't do coding.. If I am employing a 3D modeller, I want him creating models all day every day. He will have a time line and a production schedule that is in parallel with the coders. There is no way you want to be paying a guy to do nothing just because his part of a project is done.. they move on to their next project right away.

You need to look at the big picture, fixing things will be the norma for the next 10 years. Every time an addon or new content is released there will be improvements, optimizations, new features, turning on features that are in but invisible to us now.. Its a long process.

Flight Sims require a HUGE investment of time and resources before you evr get the game to market. Its what has killed most true sims.. the model they are using is to give the engine 10 years of life..so they can continue to add new content and continue to generate revenue while they improve the whole package. If they have to keep going back to re invent the wheel you simply cannot afford to do it..
