your complaint does not align with your final statement.

If controller's longevity is inherently problematic, how is it suitable for solo while not so for copperative?

If I'm playing Zelda or something, it's bearable because it's not too time sensitive and no one else is depending on me. If I'm playing Smash Bros then I just can't hit any combos and if I'm playing Overcooked then we are all letting each other down because we're running past and into each other.

ok so it's a latency issue? Your original statement indicated physical longevity issues with the controller.

No it's not latency, the controllers just don't work. The sticks drift and the buttons sometimes take multiple presses.
