Now that in 2.10 it is possible to invert pots, there could be scope for this also for switches.

What is a use case for doing this at the radio level, rather than just using inverted state of an switch?

Readability and consistency, especially when modding the hardware (switches).

The case at the radio level is for example how the switch input is displayed (x-value) on the curves graph.

Not too fan of it. If you mod hardware, simply put the switch, or wire it, in the right position (as a reminder, the rule is "down is the closest to your head" (lost in translation)

Well, I tend to hold my radio horizontally so "closest to the head" is inverse of what is indicated by my TX16S 🤣. It could be hidden in a config file but would be nice to have.

Would also mean you don’t have to boot the radio to check the orientation then desolder and resolder if you replaced a switch and put it in upside-down
