Tbh: I think getting steering feel "right" isn't easy and its a question of personal taste. While sporty drivers rather want/accept a steering, which gives you lots of feedback about surface/tarmac friction coefficient, this at the same time makes steering more unsettled/less smooth. For many (not so sporty/engaged) drivers, this kind of steering rather feels uncomfortable/imperfect!
Car magazine journalists (and car forum enthusiasts) clearly tend to one end of the spectrum ... but I am unsure about the majority of customers?
Yup exactly, I have "new" driver that drive old vehicle and find the steering even "scary" when going through bumps
