I went into the settings for the "safety" features. Found the culprit. Turns out, if you have the lane departure warning with assist, it turns your steering into jelly. Horrible.
I turned that that assistance off and used the reduced mode for the vibration/intervention. MUCH better.

Seems like the EPS system changes calibration when all of that is active. So weird.
Lane departure steering intervention can do really weird and unpredictable weird shit, I agree. Too dumb still for my tastes, I'm not a fan. I'll probably turn mine off permanently too.

Will regret it the day I nod off at the wheel and drift into oncoming but hey ...

This is true.

While I liek the safety net of steering intervention, the technology is not at that point for me.

Even in reduced mode, without steering intervention, there is some resistance in the wheel. I haven't tried letting go and seeing what happens but I might just to see how much the system is still engaging.
