I consider the flightmodel feedback from the community to be rather irrelevant, given that a large proportion of respondents to a popular survey assume they can land a real A320 lmao

Indeed. The number of times I hear complaints about how the A350 is too responsive I always think to myself: "How would you know? Did you ever fly one?" 

All I know is that real A350 pilots reported that it is way more responsive than the A330 and basically handles as nimble as a fighter jet.

Exactly. I’ve heard the same thing from experienced A380 and A350 captains—that both aircraft handle with incredible agility, and you often find yourself surprised by it. I trust their feedback more than that of simulator pilots who say, “The plane is heavy; it has to handle sluggishly.”
