Yes now it has reduced to a 5 seater with an emergency 3rd row from what it was before. They dropped reverse tilting power folding mirrors too.

NO, it's not. Compare the specs. CX-9 has 5" lesser combined legroom and I can attest as I have spent extensive time in the CX-9 as well comparing.Seems weird coming from a Sorento owner. I've said it before, the CX-9 has more room in 2nd and 3rd row as well as behind the 3rd row than the Sorento. And approximately the same cargo space with seats folded. Do you use your 3rd row?
All this talk about CX-9's lesser interior dimensions yet the Sorento sells like hot cakes being smaller. It's not just you Crazybiker, but much talk online. People that complain about a CX-9 shortcoming, go and buy a car missing the same thing.
MOST 3 row crossovers sold don't have a panoramic roof.
MOST 3 row crossovers sold don't have ventilated seats.
MOST 3 row crossovers sold don't have a heated steering wheel.
MOST 3 row crossovers sold don't have heated rear seats.
MOST 3 row crossovers sold don't have power folding mirrors.
and so on....
Why, because most people don't buy the platinum (or equivalent) trim. Yet all the internet does is point out these missing things, then turn around a buy the middle trim without all these features.
I'm with JPL, I'm super happy it even has 2nd row vents! IMO cars have too much crap that doesn't matter and not enough of what does matter. IE gizmos vs. driving well.
The steering wheel feels bad(So smooth and too hard)

This!! I totally agree with this, the steering wheel sucks. It's actually halfway painful to hold on my signature- it makes no sense. My 1965 mustang has a wooden steering wheel that is more comfy.
This is a first. Everyone talks about how the wheel is superb. How everyone should take notice on how it is stitched (auto press). It's also the best looking steering wheel on anything under $60K.
