I'm currently a Controller user for Warframe excitedly awaiting this change to hit us when Lavos drops on Consoles, but I can't help but wish they applied this elsewhere.
Inconsistency with Abilities has bugged me for years playing Warfrane, but not as much as the fact that it exists on weapons as well.
Just a few examples using the Wiki page as reference,
-
Argonak, Cernos Prime, Kuva Hind, Zarr, etc. all have "Toggled" Alt-fire modes.
-
Euphona, Basmu, Panthera, Corinth, Bubonico, etc. all use the Alt-fire button to shoot.
By default "Alternate Fire" is tied to clicking in the Right Stick which is used to aim. For Weapons that "toggle" it feels fine, but for Weapons that use it for every single shot it feels horrible. You can argue that button-remapping would fix the issue, but I'd rather not set-up a controller config purely for a handful of Weapons in a single game I play.
Adding a setting for each Weapon with an applicable Alt-fire is probably a lot more work than it took to add this setting to Abilities, but it would be a huge QOL improvement as well.
