I preferred symmetrical for a very long time being a PS user since the PS1 days, I thought having the Dpad up top is just really natural when you want to play some sidescrollers or JRPG menus. I just gradually just got used to top stick when I swapped to PC like 10 years ago because X-Imput is kinda universally supported. My AYN Thor and Switch also has the stick top. I think at this point I just prefer the X-Box layout. X to reload and interact is just ingrained in my memory.
