I was responding earnestly because I thought it was polite. That's my mistake.

Did I just witness a civil way to handle a misunderstanding? That's too much internet for today

Oh sorry, it's a common thing in my area that that's a sarcastic response. I thought you baited me.

I read it wrong. Apologies.

Anyways, I was entirely serious .. it's a weird feature to put into a controller but I get the nerd factor appeal of it. I can't confirm it first hand though, I'm waiting to get my hands on one.
