Thank you for bringing up issues that I'd never thought of before - as a flesh-sack type artist.
I think that the palette used here is quite varied, in my opinion sounds best at the fullest/loudest section. But, because you bring it up, it makes me wonder that, could we be in a situation where, the more money you are willing to spend, the "better" or "more realistic" samples you can afford to access. I don't know! Anyway, bravissimo with what you've done here.

Listening again, I love the flute melody at the beginning best. Sounds very pure and sincere.

The answer is "kinda". If you splash the cash you can have quite realistic sounds but you are still confined with some specific expressions. Legato has advanced eons (it's not "plasticky" and a pitch shifted slur anymore) but one can hear that a line is not still sounding whole but made out of several recordings (even if the layerings are cleverly hidden). Even some small imperfections have been added to make libraries sound less sterile (though some people are against this). You have to know and play to that specific library's advantage.
