Everyone shitting on the submarine using a controller seems to forget or not know that the u.s navy themselves use them to control their submarines. source

You seem to have forgotten that the navy gets fucking lockheed martin to make their specialized $38,000 controllers, not some generic $20 logitech bullshit off of amazon. See your own source for reference.

Yeah this stuff has to pass qual testing. Extreme high and low temperatures, vibration profiles, humidity and sea water exposure, probably shock loads, stricter EMI controls (compared to FCC), ESD exposure, explosive atmosphere testing, and so on and so on.
