Arguing over which cartoon airplane makes you more manly, and which is too dweeby, is dweeby.
And, if I'm not mistaken, the spit has half the firepower, engine, and tail surfaces of a P38. Presuming your statement has some sort of basis in fact, or is even remotely accurate, we can deduce that the P38, with twice the engines, and twice the rudders, and many times the ordnance load, fuel load, and range, is horribly overmodelled, and absolutely has to be tuned down to a value I define as reasonable.
Oh, and look at me!
