First time VR blew my mind

As others echoed, the readability seems to be worst in MSFS than in XPlane 11. If you also give Xplane a go, I think you will also enjoy using the hand controllers as your own hands. You can reach up and flick any switches as you do in the real cockpit, twist speed/altitude knobs with your hands and feel the tactile feedback vibration from each click, instead of using a mouse and keyboard, and also walk around inside the aircraft and the outside of an aircraft / walk on the airport apron or anywhere in the world. Cant wait till MSFS supports hand controllers as well later in the year, great time to be a simmer, we really have two fantastic sims in our hands. 

I never understood how do you manage to fly a plane with your joystick if you have your hands on the motion controlers.

Use valve index controllers so your fingers are free to use.

I fly with a yoke and as I was taught in flight school you only need finger tips to fly a plane.
