Agreed, that's why I called on specifically ED and not DCS as a whole. I fully support Razbam, Aerges, Heatblur, Orbx and the others. But my low expectations are not just with this ED/Razbam fiasco, but also the half assed features, borked patches that supposedly would have more quality since they'd stay longer in the oven, the Chinook that's having a rough time to be released. But yeah, I know these other issues are off-topic here so I won't go on.

I'm with you. My confidence in ED is in an all time low, and I've been here for a long time.

I like this idea. Other approach would be to save the state of switches, fuel and maybe other systems from your last flight. I know some paid aircraft in X-plane do this, so It´s important to follow proper preflight and shutdown checklists.
