I'm in danger of sounding like a boomer but I think slower cars with more feedback and less mechanical grip taught people what happens if you over step at lower speeds and how to feel it.
Now you can jump in an S3 with astonishing levels of mechanical grip, fuck all feedback, and lose it trying to go around a 50mph corner at 100mph and walk away from the crash. I don't feel like that's progress.
Case in point why I binned off my S3 and went with the M2. It'll bite, so you tend to treat it with respect as opposed to using the accelerator like an on/off switch...
