Context: this is a legit screenshot I took on my workplace around 1.5 years ago. Hopefully it's been patched by now? Completely ridiculous behavior

No, you were discussing a feature I wasn't even talking about. I have two working hands and no need for any accessibility features. I explicitly referred to a pointless mouse setting - as in a setting that is completely useless for an attached peripheral mouse device. As in, it lets you select a mouse, once again - like an attached, peripheral Logitech mouse, from a dropdown and apply specific, useless settings to that device which only make sense for a keyboard. Because it either can't distinguish between a pointer device and a keyboard for that setting, or, more likely, the UI developers didn't even bother to try and apply any kind of device filtering for it. So, I will reiterate: a Mac enthusiast with abysmal reading comprehension skills; how rare!

If the mouse has hot keys it likely presents to the system as a keyboard as well.

That's fair, but it's a $20 Logitech mouse, so...not really. And I'd give that a pass on Linux. But on a Mac? Yeah....nah. That shit's made by a massive corporation that utilizes slave labor. They don't get a pass.

20 Logitech mouse? What do you mean? Also why do you hate mac so much? Is Microsoft not also a greedy evil corporation?

Of course it is, but the thread is, wait for it, about Macs. If there's a thread complaining about Windows and Microsoft, you'll definitely find me there, on topic. Until then, I'm not going to engage with whataboutisms.

Okay now you're making sense.

Oh look a mouthy idiot on a tech forum who doesn’t understand that third parties supply drivers for third party - how incredibly boring, just like the mouthy idiot. https://sensible-side-buttons.archagon.net/

Okay, but you were still wrong though and have bad reading comprehension skills.
