Interesting reading. Some things I noticed:
I do hope IPACS pay attention to the facts here and shape their development schedule accordingly:
I have always yelled louder for weather than for ATC. I can better imagine that my copilot is handling the ATC than I can imagine the existence of weather.
My guess is that ATC is less of a framerate killer than weather and people like FS2 for the smooth framerates in VR.
They asked everyone what they wanted a while back - 1 year, 2 years I can't remember. That's when ATC got put at the top of the list. I presume it came out above weather at the time.
The weather in mobile 2019 looks nicer, the clouds seem more convincing and darker. It makes up for the super easy mode of the mobile R-22. I'd prefer that a virtual copilot kept chatting to ATC and kept his/her unwanted hands off the controls.
ATC is in demand from the game/multiplay side and to be fair IPACS probably see them as a bigger market than the authentic flight simulation side. I'd give the ATC side what they want, compulsory perfectly filled in flight plans to use the larger planes and a one hour wait for Eurocontrol to proceess them, might put them off the bliss of a sequence of heading and height instructions.

Lovely post!
I guess that ATC primarily matters to the people who like to fly big Airliners while the necessity of ATC communication is far less for GA flyers. Weather though matters to anyone. I don't even need real worldwide weather, just more options and variety to the existing weather conditions, very much like the custom weather option in FSX or P3D.
