I see a 'middle of the road' playstyle (a sort of simulation-lite) as extremely harmful. I have a condescending attitude towards middle-of-the-road FEATURES, not the players who favour them, but...

I was referring to the "dark side" market reality of a pure sim vs a game, not playstyles.
It is not possible to criticize a playstyle without that criticism spilling over onto its adherents. Your contempt for "sim-lite", and by extension the people who enjoy it, is unfortunate and undiplomatic at times.
THAT was my original complaint. I am sorry I let it spill over into more than that. I simply wanted a less divisive tone on the board. Gamers are people too (and a very important part of this community). I will not be responding further.
Apologies all.
