Agreed, but I often have to strain just to understand the controller.

For example, knowing that I'm likely to be asked to keep my
speed up on that ILS, because he's vectoring a Hawker behind me for the
same ILS.

I've not had that experience. Like most sim pilots, I look forward to
areas and periods of high traffic so that I can get more experience in
dealing with congested airspaces. But simulation has the opposite
problem of the real world: the real world has too much traffic, and
simulation has too little. It's getting better, though (even as the
real world gets worse!).
