If you have mouse acceleration on KDE when selecting the "flat" profile then
“feature”
Be weary of an enthusiasts projects - great in theory but I've almost bricked a steelseries mouse this way.
I'd recommend a Windows VM and then pass the USB to the VM so you can adjust whatever settings in their dumb windows-only software.
Interesting, you may have some confliting configurations, because I use Plasma wayland and I have no mouse acceleration when set to flat.
Huh, it could be that I need a fresh install. I will try adding KDE Neon or something on my Ventoy and post an update. Thanks!
UPDATE: I am an idiot.
I was setting the acceleration method for the wrong device all the time. I didn't realize to select the actual mouse from the dropdown in KDE mouse settings until I plugged in my old mouse in.
Anyway that's the acceleration solved. Also as qwesx pointed out, there is some issue with my Logitech Pro X Superlight. The mouse feels more sluggish when using the wireless dongle compared to it being wired. Must be the wrong polling rate or something?

You have to set the profile for both wired and wireless mode since they're different USB IDs. Dealt with the same thing on the same mouse. Same thing with Solaar if you use it to set the polling rate.
