I’ve been working with such a poorly documented application that five minutes of debugging can save me hours of reading documentation. Thanks Microsoft.

Not testing is crazy. Once you realize you can actually refactor without ever having the fear you’ve broken something, there’s actually opportunity to make rapid improvments in structure and performance. Taking 2 minutes to write the test can save your hours of debugging. Unless you’re building a throwaway prototype, not unit testing is always the wrong choice.
I remember using them in my high school robotics club. And honestly, I think the controller was probably one of the least sketchy things about the sub. Lots of fields use game controllers to handle equipment since they’re well designed for that. There were many other things that were far worse.
Yep, I’ve seen reporting of Navy’s using them for controlling periscopes on submarines (now that most are drive by wire), or Air forces using them for piloting drones, as well as for teleoperated robotic thoracic surgeries.
The widespread user familiarity and benefits in transferable hand coordination skills with common gaming based HID economics is hard to refute. Although, I’m guessing the market for safety certified joysticks will uptick.
