Besides, there can't be any more than 5 ESC OEMs in the world (honestly I'd be surprised if t was more than 3), but there sure is a heck of a lot more ESC brands being sold than that.
That's the thing. Any of the other brands can make the same requests. There's nothing uniquely innovative about paying extra for higher spec FETs or checking a few boxes for the firmware feature list.
