You talk about yoke and rudder movement but I suggest on your next flight you check the movement of the real controls !
At a fast cruise you will find the real controls only move about 1 inch at high speed while as you know in landing near the stall the rudder and elevators will give full deflection!
Sadly the MSFS flight dynamics engine is highly complex and has hardly changed over the years modelling flight dynamics poorly especially in put of the box manoeuvres!
Down load models from realairsimulations where flight dynamics guru Rob Young extracted and tricked the MSFS dynamics engine into giving a quite realistic feel ! Also look at controls which are spring loaded to give an artificial resistance
