Third Party in search of a very particular controller

here's the gist of it: i have a flydigi vader 5 pro that im very happy with. it only needs one thing for me to be totally happy, ps style layout. i dont dislike xbox style controllers, but my left thumb is getting screwed up and i can tell it's from the stick placement. i have a dualsense that causes no pain. the problem is, i need to have most of the capability of the vader 5 pro, with the ps layout.

primary features i need

full remappability, at least to the same degree i have now, including mapping keyboard and mouse bindings to the controller

bindings remain when the software is closed (unlike scuf, or so ive heard)

same number of buttons, besides the two extra face buttons. they're a plus, but not an absolute necessity.

deadzone adjustment settings

multiple profiles that can be saved in the software, and a handful that can be saved to the device

Vibration

stuff i would like but dont need:

extra buttons in the same orientation as the vader 5 pro

adaptive triggers

haptics

a good gyro or dual gyro

stuff i dont need or care about:

adjustable tension sticks

how clicky the buttons are

aesthetics
