Plz plz plz, Add Gyro Aim (Motion Sensor) Settings to the next BF

I have always loved Battlefield games over most shooters and as a PS5 player, I have adapted to Gyro Aim a couple years ago.  For me, it's SIGNIFICANTLY better and more fun than stick aiming.  It allows controller players to have the same (or similar) intuitive responsiveness as Mouse thus not needing Aim Assist.  And if you're curious, Gyro Aim has grown much more popular the past couple years.  You can easily search "Gyro aim" or "Motion controls" for most major shooters these days and find players using and supporting it such as these youtubers:

A Twitter post that generated tons of traffic and support when a Valve dev told PC Gamer magazine that you can use a controller like a mouse:

Valorant had major posts across multiple forums when they mentioned they were not adding Gyro Aim due to Xbox lacking the tech:

And even games like God of War Ragnarok saw support for having Gyro Aim for its ranged combat (which btw makes comboing SOOO much more fluid and fun on controller):

More and more games have added Gyro Aim on PS5 in just the past couple years with Fortnite, MW3, and The Finals having more of the "gold standard" of native implementations:

And of course, Nintendo has been ahead of this curve for some time now where the majority of the community actually accepts Gyro Aim as a better standard--Splatoon devs even stated that over 70% of their player base uses Gyro Aim even if they are using a pro controller.

Quite simply, Gyro Aim has a solid user base these days with some players having used it on past BF games already (can find some of their vids on Youtube).  And if I were to suggest any examples of good implementations, well Jibb Smart did Fortnites Gyro Aim and it's considered the best right now.  Not only that, but Sony secretly improved their Motion Controls in a recent patch that helped across all games that use it on Playstation by making it feel even more intuitive.  So I really hope you guys take this into consideration.

Looking forward to the next BF!
