Why is “flick” the ONLY option?

As stated. The “flick” thing is really dumb. I’ve been skating since 1999 and in no way is it similar to the way you move your feet or body. I get it, it’s different. But it’s a gimmick, it  sucks, and for the vast majority of potential players is a MASSIVE turn off. There are posts as old as the original with back-door ways to use a keyboard for PC players. Why is there not a controller button scheme in 2025? It’s almost like there has been a perfectly fine skateboard controller scheme longer than the “skate.” franchise has existed. . .
