Your second idea, IMO, is not good, it would essentially make the game feel sluggish or even that the controls don't work. Being sim should always take into consideration that this is a video game and it needs to reward proper decision making/timing/reflexes of the user.

True sim has to be relative to a videogame. I think the double tap will have similar penalties without that God awful cone! LOL
I dont think it will be too sluggish.
