That’s literally what this is. Real gun, real rof, stats get tweaked for balance…like mag size
Except magsize is a non-negotiable part of the “real” parts… If you model a mag that could literally only hold 10 rounds and say that it holds 15, then you’re breaking reality. Why not model a 10 round magazine and say that it holds 50 rounds, because balance, I bet you’d defend that too if the 30 rounders somehow became 100 rounders without changing the model, or even without that change, although if you’d have a problem with it it’d probably because of balance reasons rather than the absolute shattering of the suspension of disbelief.
Damage and accuracy are the only parts that aren’t, because of how games model these things.

I would rather see them visually increase its magazine size and make them “invent” something that didn’t exist, than take something real and implement it incorrectly.

That would be less egregious
Instead of making A and calling it B, make B even if B didn’t exist.
Once we have such a precedent I don’t see what would stop the devs from adding T-34-152 or MP-40-250 for “fun” and “playability”

Lol i guarantee most people (like 99%) would not know that it’s actually a 10 rd mag, and the people who do know went and researched it for some reason. This is definitely not “breaking reality/immersion” here. It’s a few bullets difference and looks close enough to the large majority of player base, that they wouldn’t even question it. You can’t even really see the mags in gameplay to begin with. You are definitely in the small group of people who care that much about it.

Setting ignorance as the gold standard never leads to anything good

Yep, that’s my opinion all the time. Definitely less than Japanese running around with Ofenrohr.
The only ones that are pissed off are google historians.
