If Sony caused them to malfunction to the point where the user bought a new controller, then I'd consider that damaged. The controller could no longer be used for its intended purpos.

Why is it sonys responsibility to maintain functionality for a bunch of knockoffs?

If they intentionally made 3rd party controllers not function with their product, that's monopolistic behavior and should absolutely be stopped.

If Sony didn't provide any message saying it was an unsupported device and caused people to buy new devices, that would be considered damages.
