Scrap metal of the A-10? No no no good sir, let's just remember

What plane can shoot 70 30mm rounds a second
What plane doesn't break apart like a twig when shot at
What plane can kill you from 15 miles via air to ground guided missiles
What plane wasn't built on a country's last dying breath of resources
What plane isn't a worthless tin can

.... and what plane was built by AMERICA

While maneuvering at 3 to 4 g, managing throttle and controls?

While potentially getting shot at? I'd sure have the motivation to!

The real issue is the actual time required to deploy a useful amount of flaps. I don't see that posted anywhere.

Do you think that 15 clicks on a button is more realism?
It is not the number of clicks that matters, it is the time delay between the click and the time the new setting takes effect. HTC can make it so you tap the key 3 times to lower 3 notches, but the game takes a 4-5 seconds delay before moving to the next flap setting, then 4-5 seconds to the next.. etc.

Flap deployment time should be slowed down across the board for all planes. Silly full-flaps hover moves will only be possible if you start deploying the flaps 15-20 seconds in advance - and then take as long to retract them back and recover. 1-2 notches max (5-10 sec to deploy!) would still be useful in a fight, as it was in real life (still, was not common use). No one deployed full flaps in a fight.

That sounds familiar.

The real issue is the actual time required...
