HEH now! Some of us "older crowd"(72yo here) love the FK8 styling and think the FL5 is taxi cab style with a Boi Racer wing hung on the back. I think you misunderstood. I like the FK8. I'm saying Honda decided to tone things down yet added a tacked on looking spoiler. Honda is weird. Lol
The thinner sidewalls on the FK8 due to the larger wheels compared to the new FL5 could also be contributing to the difference in steering feel. Also fwiw, my FK8 Type R actually has pretty similar steering feedback to my 991.2 Carrera T, it's pretty darn good for EPS.

Those of you with an eidetic memory may have noticed that the Type R’s latest time is a second slower than the FK8-generation managed six years ago, but Honda points out that the FL5’s time
I really don't think Honda is targeting this at Type-R owners. As has been implied, this is more or less the same car in the 11th gen styling. There's no reason for an FK8 owner to upgrade, nor do I think Honda intends there to be. To be sure, there are some improvements in the 10th gen's

FK8 lap temp 80 (July). FL5 lap temp 65 (October). Otherwise the laps were very similar. I've got both videos posted at the bottom. Important stock vs stock differences to note: FL5 suspension in R mode is significantly stiffer, and this really did come in handy. FL5 final gear ratio is longer.
For us in the states who are huge Honda fans we are ecstatic at the opportunity to own a civic type r. And I could not agree with you more about better cars out there than the Civic Type R. Especially for the amount of money some of these people are paying for the FL5 and the FK8s.
