I love this sim but makes me feel like I spent an additional 70 dollars for half a** on some things. You've accidentally coined a new term: half-Asobo It does seem appropriate given the state of certain features. I'm not that worried about the taxiway naming snafu as I'm going through all my airports and fixing everything else anyways. Asobo will eventually fix most of the rest of the issues.

The point is, you have no way of verifying that you’re actually in the right place other than trying to compare the taxiway ground layout shape to your chart. I always take my time to look through the charts and commit relevant areas of the airport to memory, but that doesn’t help in scenarios like exiting the runway. If I exit the runway and there are several high speeds all in a line next to each other, how do I know which one I’ve exited on without entering the external view to try and look at the ground layout? Just kind of breaks immersion. At night it’s significantly worse too. The biggest issues are knowing where to turn. To follow your example, no, it doesn’t magically make it some different road. But if you see an off-ramp / exit sign on that freeway that says one street name and is actually another, you’d be pretty confused wouldn’t you, even if you were using GPS? It’s not impossible, but it’s an immersion breaker. Especially when exiting the runway.
