If you provide a method to identificate which poster are part of the "blue side" I could give a partial answer: but I don't think it's true that only the blue want this feature modelled. I think to some friends used to fly Spitfire who could actually welcome this feature in name of the realism.

Anyway it's not a smart question: "why only the blue side want the the feature modelled?" can easily become "why only the red side don't want the feature modelled?"

We should leave away this Red vs Blue thing...

Do you mean that the test in the first post is not real? I know there are some posters able to find the source in few time (NZthypoon is surprising ) so if it was a false document it could be easily unmasked.

A whole generation of pilots learned to treasure the Spitfire for its delightful response to aerobatic manoeuvres and its handiness as a dogfighter. Iit is odd that they had continued to esteem these qualities over those of other fighters in spite of the fact that they were of only secondary importance tactically.Thus it is doubly ironic that the Spitfire’s reputation would habitually be established by reference to archaic, non-tactical criteria.
