Well actually they do bring that up when discussing it.
the main thing is, this has almost no delay between button presses and action on the screen, it's far less input lag than using an Arduino solution because it's a dedicated device.
the reason I say more inputs is because It'd be nice to have once device with at least double what this has, not for your standard gamepad or flight stick, but for control consoles and such.
like, it'd be awesome to build a cockpit for Elite dangerous with all the inputs mapped to physical buttons and switches.
but then... I like physical buttons and switches with weight to them and an audible click...
