Norbert's flying (potential spoiler)

I wish they made the flying objects UN-tappable! It is so annoying how they get in the way of the game play. As if this sentiment hasn't been expressed to death already, why don't these devs ever take action to fix it? You go to the town hall census, and when you select the character flying, it doesn't even take you to them, it takes you to a building (Norbert's landing strip here) instead. So why, if the game doesn't use the flying object, should we have to? The flying objects should be UN tappable. You want to check on them, go to the object the town hall sends you to. It's that simple! These flying tasks do nothing but get in the way of people's taps. It's worse when they practically center the object on the screen, the same zone that most players tap their Springfields in. It doesn't make sense, and I wish the devs would listen to the feedback. I remember someone did a poll/survey on it, and players overwhelmingly hated this aspect of the game play. Anyone else feel this way about it like the OP and I do?
At least they made Norbert's plane way smaller than the helicopter, space ship, and sleigh. It's a start at least.
