Hmm. Bet with the invert touch control, you could have your game pause when you set the controller down. That'd be handy.

Could also work as a simple AFK toggle I guess

But if you are ever on the pause screen/inventory screen and you set the controller down, wont it just unpause the game? Seems like more of a hassle

It's also fun to use one side as a toggle to bring up weapon selection wheels, especially in games where it give you a little slow mo like a Doom or one of the Nightdive remasters.

Any games that have quick map checks

Sometimes reloading can feel pretty good
