I think i figured it out.
I tried driving the same as him and oddly enough the car feels like it has lobe like a cam in the steering rack.
Kind of hard to explain but there is a resistance change dead center at the top of the lobe.
There’s no flat spot if that makes sense.
It’s impossible to keep the car dead center exerting equal pressure on both sides simultaneously.
There’s nothing wrong with the car, i think that’s just they way it is.
2019 Kia Soul with 40k on it.
It almost feels like it’s intentionally there to help mitigate FWD torque steer.
It’ll just fall over to the other side no matter what leading to the constant correction

I believe i understand exactly what you mean. That's VERY weird, and it sounds like there's some sort of issue, because there shouldn't be increased resistance at dead center. I would expect that to be the area of least resistance.
