Confusion about when it's my navigation, and when it's ATC

Uh, gee, Einstein, a real rudder DOES control flight path.





Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't.




There is never a case where it doesn't change flight path.



Not so. When an engine fails on a multi, a lot of rudder is required.
Skillfully done, the application of a lot of rudder is mandatory to
maintain the desired flight path.





Yep, thus changing the flight path from the centered position.

That is pure b.s. It keeps the flight path intended going, rather than
letting if follow the flight path at the centered position, which is
also known as a torgue roll into intverted flight, followed by a briefly
painful death for all aboard.
