With all the inputs on the front of the controller and 4 on the back you have plenty of options.

Instead they all just copy each others’ designs. Even Nintendo—once known for being innovative—is guilty of this. The Switch/Switch 2 Pro controller is literally just a crappier XBOX controller with digital triggers for some bizarre reason.

I think it says that pressure triggers can be mapped as buttons too.

You can also map the trackpads (on the Steam Deck at least, so I assume for the controller) to use a menu that you can tie to anything. EmuDeck set up plenty of Profiles that can switch the controls and the prompts on the touchpad radial to show so many options it would make my head spin! Hopefully that can fulfill your needs?
