Fractal vs. Pedals

On the plus side, trying out new ideas on the AFX won't cost me an extra few hundred dollars for each attempt. That's a *huge* plus. (Especially when you take into account that my pedalboard, as configured, costs slightly *more* than my AFX rig. No exotic pedals, just lots of them.)
The thing is though, some people who want to use a phase 90 only have to plug it in and turn one knob. On the fractal you need to know how your favourite phaser, flanger etc is put together to then try and emulate it. Would much rather be able to choose a phase 90 model from a menu and turn the one knob instead of being presented with a million options. Those other options could be available in an advanced model from the menu.
I love the no tubes = no soul. Someone should tell them tubes are only made eastern bloc nations so that soul is dead red commie.
So you just select the Phase 90 preset from the effect type menu in the Axe and adjust only the rate knob. You've even got the option to have block and script versions. Its as simple or complex as one wants to make it.
Makes no sense to hide any additional controls in different menu's because a few users either can't resist randomly tweaking other knobs they don't understand, or are intimidated by more than one knob.
As I said, if you want to treat it like a stock pedal, adjust only the rate knob, HOWEVER, one might find that hey... having that tone adjustment or depth knob actually is pretty cool and wish their hardware pedal had that ability.
I have an Axefx XL. You don't need to convince me
I am just saying that lots of people don't like the Axe because of this. A lot of my pro mates and producers won't touch it. Don't shoot the messenger.
It's also not quite as simple as you state. How do you emulate an ADA flanger straight out of the box? Not seen or heard anyone do it yet. So it's not simply a matter of pulling a model from the menu.
