I have never used xplane so can’t comment on that or the much older versions, but in comparison to FSX, one of the first things I noticed in MSFS was that you wouldn’t track Centreline after landing in a crosswind.
Still, I’m not sure comparisons with older versions or different products is useful. The point is that it’s an issue in MSFS 2020, that there is a workable solution, but that it hasn’t been implemented by Asobo in their own aircraft. And maybe that is because CFD means they feel they don’t need to, but if so, say so!
