I disagree. It is easy to say what is natural, but hard to show it. After someone has been flying for a while it sure feels natural. But when I have a new student I find that very often they "over control" the aircraft. I can get them to quite down by convincing them to "just use pressure". Maybe we are just arguing semantics, but I think that it is learned, not "natural."
