Could it be that the F-22’s flight capabilities exceed that which the human body can tolerate (even pilots)? Maybe we’re at the breaking point with the F-22?

No, that happened with the F-16. The plane knows how much the pilot can take, and doesn't exceed that limit, even though aerodynamically and structurally it could. (It's all fly by computer, starting with the F-16, although not a digital computer until the C/D models. (Redundant computers in both cases, first analog and then digital) But that was over 35 years ago.
