Scam or amazing? What are your thoughts?
I really DO like the additional “purpose” that will be added to the sim. I really don’t like the not unlikely possibility that all that add-on money spent on the “old” flight simulator will be wasted.

How do train sim people handle breaking changes to the interfaces that add-ons / DLC use?
This is typically why add-ons break in flight sim: some part of the engine that the add-on uses, changes and thus the add-on breaks. The only way to keep 100% backwards compatibility is to not change anything, or to maintain every version of every interface forever. I.e. make sure that the v1 flight model still works even after changing your engine, as well as v2, v3, etc and test them all every release.
That is costly. That is why there are breaking changes and add-ons break in flight sims. Not because base game / engine devs want you to have to buy new add-ons, IMHO.
