Do you have a strong use case or reason to add it back?
I wouldn't say *strong* per se, but if something:
- Can be adjustable
- I think if hardware is capable of such thing it's better to have
adjustment of it available to user.
- It's better to have an option then no option at all, let the user
decide.
- Doesn't break the hardware nor software
- When decreasing polling interval
- Battery impact is just faster discharging, it doesn't "breaks" it
- Bluetooth stack won't break, it could be just "overwhelmed"
- When increasing polling interval
- No negative impact at all (if we wouldn't count the user who can
set polling interval to like 63, and have choppy controls, that's why
defaults exists)
- Have benefits
- PI can be decreased for smoother controls in cost of battery life
- PI can be also increased to save battery in cost of smooth controls
- Doesn't impact anything nor anybody on defaults.
The not adjustable referred to USB, which is not adjustable. So keep
that one the way it is.
Oh, OK, I understood this in another way, but that make sense too.
