For those that are not experiencing the "issues" with the controls, I think it's because to those people it's not a problem. Especially those that are used to playing Rockstar games before this one. GTAV controls very much the same, with regards to the input delay with movement in general. If you are walking forwards and you try to switch direction, it takes a second or two to turn around. Part of it is because the character animations need to play out, but I think there is more to it than that.
There is certainly some delay between the animation even starting. Maybe it's because the animations are so complex that there are only a few frames that can transition into other animations, and when you input a direction on the joystick you need to wait until the animation reaches a point where it can transition.
I played the game for probably 80 hours or more, and it was one of the greatest gaming experiences of recent memory, even despite the controls being bad. This isn't really the type of game that relies on good controls in order to function proper.
