Sorry, but it's your usage of the example that is completely wrong. The
Navy is not using MSFS *in lieu* of flight training, the point under
discussion here.

That is not the point under discussion. Few simulators are suitable
for use in place of actual flight in the simulated aircraft. None
that don't include motion would be suitable.

Without
flight training, you wind up with the kinds of notions and questions that
have been posted here recently.

Whereas with flight training, you become convinced that you know the
answers and never bother to ask.
