I'd be fine with membrane switches if there were split D-pad options for them. Don't mind them for buttons, but ever since I got a Stadia controller, I haven't looked back at membranes for D-pads.

    And depending on what you play, membrane controller D-pads wear out unevenly - i had to toss my "Dead Cells"-Controller into my "backup hardware" bin because of the right side input being FAR more easy to press than the left side which messed up more than a few runs - to be fair it took around 6-700hrs of playtime to get there, but it does happen.

    Right?! Not to mention the issue with dual inputs when rocking one direction back and forth on the d-pad. Noticed it as I was playing Hollow Knight on my OG Switch with the Switch Pro Controller's infamous D-pad, which the Switch 2 Pro Controller didn't even bother fixing.
