A patent filed by Nintendo suggests that they’re working on Hall Effect style joysticks for the Switch 2 that would eliminate stick drift almost entirely.

That's not a valid option. 50% is terrible for joystick dead zone and is considered poor quality.

As a Steam Deck user, even the thought of a 50% dead zone makes me nauseous.

It wouldn't be the default, obviously... did you read the first part of my post?

It makes way more sense for that to be an OS level option, not per game. It also makes even more sense to have hall effect joysticks and avoid the problem entirely.
