You'll never get a clear answer from a developer on these joint projects with MS/Asobo. It's surprising to me that iniBuilds has a bug reporting forum for the YS-11 at all. Generally, developers just direct you to the MSFS forums and tell you to talk to Asobo. There have been a few small updates to the YS since release that addressed a few small bugs, but beyond that I don't think anyone from either side has said anything about what can be expected in the future.

I've been trawling the internet in search of information on the YS-11 in order to make more meaningful and helpful bug reports that will hopefully propel this add-on towards a greater level of completeness and accuracy. I've turned up very little, so far, but I found this interesting anecdote regarding performance on PPRuNe from an ex-Piedmont YS-11 pilot that aligns with some feedback I've seen here and on the MSFS forums regarding performance, particularly after takeoff: I hope this is useful to the devs.

Same for me

If you buy in one, you get it in the other. I bought in 24 and next time I loaded into 20 it was there. For what it's worth, it does seem like it takes longer to appear in 24 if you buy it in 20. I have a friend who did that and I think it took a few days for it to show as owned for him in 24.

The YS-11 is surprisingly good for a Local Legend but it's still missing systems depth and some functionality. If someone does an Electra I hope it would be someone that would do it proper justice as a standalone full fidelity addon.

I didn't say it was certainly correct that it cruises nose down, nor did I say it was common. I said it might not be incorrect and that we don't have documentation. I seem to remember that some older aircraft, particularly the DC-6, would sometimes cruise slightly nose down depending on the cruise altitude and weight. Modern jet airliners are all designed to cruise with a slight nose up pitch.

That's not necessarily incorrect, we'd need more extensive real world documentation for the aircraft to be able to say for sure.

I am not the person who posted it, but this post over on the MSFS forums seems like it might be very important for ini to review and check. It seems like there might be a units of measurement conversion error at play with the fuel flow based on what this person found.

Is there a paint kit for the YS-11 or, if not, will one be released?

I just found it, it's in \Custom Scenery\Xometry - KCRW West Virginia Yeager Airport\Mesh_Options I installed via iniManager and wouldn't have known to go looking for it had I not asked here, if there's a way to include instructions about this on iniManager it'd probably spare you a lot of grief with people asking about it. Thanks!
