I expect that as a businessman Markus wants to grow his company, and that means not a static fan base but a growing one. A growing one means bringing in new users and (hopefully) retaining them as continuing customers. Too much detail will likely scare off a lot of potential customers.
As I said previously, details must be managed carefully. (And not all details are of equal importance to all users.)

That all makes sense, but you also need to factor in that I (and I'm sure there are others similar to me) won't be purchasing this game again until these bugs are fixed. It would be great to make many of the features optional, but I understand that takes more work as well, and I'm not sure how much work is devoted to OOTP. The DH in the field is certainly optional and I was told that ST is optional as well (I sim all my ST games) so I'm not sure why having it mirror reality would scare people off.
