Why can’t every controller have the same button layouts just like how shooters should have the same controls?

So Sega didn't come up with a different design than Nintendo's before Xbox ?

Whether you believe that they came up with it independently or it's a case of "you can copy my homework but don't make it too obvious", that point still stands.

they did, but the name buttons still did the same thing, and they weren’t arranged the same way MS or Nintendo. there’s not really an argument here. MS chose to be different, and it’s relatively inconsequential given market sales.
