There are a lot of folks who don’t know what they don’t know and user needs run the gamut from: “how do I turn the plane on” to “how do I properly execute an NDB approach.” All valid.
But aviation is one of the most interdisciplinary fields in the world. There are so many things going on at once that it takes pretty extensive education and experience to put them all together. And despite that, even the most experienced pilots are still learning, every flight. It’s an unspoken requisite for the job.
Yet, one of the biggest factors missing from the sim is risk. We can do it right or wrong all day and it doesn’t matter. You get up after the flight, no matter the outcome, hug your loved ones and continue about your day. So doing it “wrong” (in a way that would impart real-world risk) begets doing it wrong. In that regard, we meet the sim at whatever level it needs to be met, flaws and all, because whatever works, works.
Just a reminder that you can vote for this 
I’m a firm believer that foundational, fundamental education is the key. This is my prime motivation for being here and doing my stream, etc. There’s no reason we can’t enhance our knowledge and enjoyment of all the joys and challenges of simulated aviation through “simucation.”
I’ll add that it’s not easy to effectively translate or compare real-world to sim, or troubleshoot, isolate, and communicate found issues. It’s an entire skillset unto itself.
