I don't know if it is over-boost of the power steering, poor suspension design, an attempt to eek a few more tenths of a mile of range out of the car, or something else entirely, but it is definitely something that detracts from the experience every time I drive it.

I'm not sure it's my biggest complaint, but its certainly in the top 3.
This is all subject to personal preference. I had a BMW 330 ZHP which had the M3 suspension/steering/brakes. It was VERY tight. I didn't love it or hate it. I similarly don't love or hate the Leaf steering. The Leaf is my commuter car, not a $45K BMW luxury/performance car. YMMV.
