I'm probably part of the problem. I've never used a controller except a few times at friends' houses. I grew up with Nintendo DS, Wii, PC, and smartphone games. I don't want to ever have to pick up a controller.
With a phone, there's a type of controller that wraps around the phone, turning it into a Switch form factor. That's probably the middle ground between atrocious touchscreen d-pads (or only playing games that actually work well with touch controls) versus lugging around a Dualsense and some mount contraption or kickstanding your phone on a surface.
