Not the sim's default Garmin 530, it ain't! Not even close.

For proof of this, change to the Garmin's active flight plan page and
(assuming you have a flight plan with an handful of waypoints) scroll down
a couple of waypoints. Hit the DIRECT TO key and watch what happens to all
those other waypoints that were skipped over.

(spoiler: they all disappear, forever gone from the flight plan)

*THIS* GPS payware add-on is the real deal for MSFS:
