I like the situation that the cables go slack when the control surface is not centered.
Me too, I've never noticed a little slack being a problem in flight or any issues with holding a knife

It's a pull/pull system after all,, not pull/push
The problem with a a pull-pull with slacks is when the rudder is to be returned from a deflected position. There will be a delay for the rudder to move back because of the slack. The delay probably is more when the rudder is further off the center. To fly precisely, you do not need the delay.


What delay?
In flight,,, as soon as you release the rudder the wind/air pressure moves the rudder
