Well, the problem is we also want to detect 2 things:
- devices that do not have any of the HID++ collections, and handle
them as generic ones (the second mouse/keyboard collection in the
gaming mice should still be exported by the driver, or this will kill
the macros / rebinding capabilities
- malicious devices that pretends to have a HID++ collection but want
to trigger a buffer overflow by having a shorter than expected report
length

Point 2 above should still be fine, but point 1 is why we have the
enforcement of the HID++ short report in the first place.

Benjamin
