They probably don't want to use that particular design anyway. I've run into a good number of headaches with those joysticks. Not bad enough for me to pull them back out, but certainly enough to be annoying.
What type of problems?
I've encountered two noticeable issues while using these. The first is probably just shit tier QA, but the second could be that or a design flaw. I haven't taken the time to tear one apart and reverse engineer it, so I can't say for sure what the cause is. Anywho, about a third of my sticks will wig out and send complete garbage data when they are pushed to their maximum on one axis. Sometimes it is the X, sometimes it is the Y. Either way it makes the impossible to use and I actually did remove those and replace them. Of the remaining sticks a number of them will depress the under stick button if pushed all the way in one direction. It's pretty easy to avoid this and it rarely matters so these ones I left alone and didn't bother to count how many displayed the behavior.
I was hoping hall effects could be the solution. Maybe best that can be hoped for is ones that can be popped out for easy replacement like the dualsense edge.
