And from what I've seen in Mentour's YouTube video, where he attempts to replicate that condition in a level D simulator for the 737 NG, the old simulator replicated the condition quite well.
So it seems the issue is specific to the MAX simulators. One requirement for a level D simulator is that it should accurately provide force feedback for the pilot's flight controls through a system called "control loading".
I'm wondering if downsizing the trim wheel on the Max was overlooked in the sim.
