I know you're right on this. In fact, I'm often amazing that my club-mates (in a heli-dominated club) spend most of their time hovering a few feet in front of them. To me that seems about as exciting as watching the oven. So, I guess I should make a distinction between model airplanes, model helicopters, non-FPV multicopters, and FPV vehicles of any type. My perhaps outdated view is that RC flying should be harshly restricted ONLY to official RC flying fields by certified members of a valid RC flying club.
