And it's not just trim; it's also carb heat and cowl
flaps and speed brakes and other things that make a
complex aircraft complex.
I've been hoping to make
FWIW, when flying I have often wanted to see trim indication so I
think the popup is valuable. I don't know whether there should be more
trim indication in plane cockpits or (because of the already-cramped

I agree!
IMHO a "peer-review" that snipes at "int ii" as opposed
to "int i" -- to the exclusion of any discussion of
actual features that pilots can use -- is pretty poor.
