Weird mouse/peripheral setups for gaming

So a while back I noticed that over the years from gaming and being on my computer so much, that my wrists were in pain often and I lost a lot of fine motion in my mouse movements. Something that I just said "fuck it" and tried while trying to snipe in TF2 one way was to bind my scroll wheel to +attack, and it gave me a much more comfortable, lighter grip on my mouse (because my index is a lot farther away from my thumb) as well as made my reaction time with hitscan single-shot weapons a lot better.

Before, when I was clicking with m1, it would slightly move my mouse to the upper left. I know for a fact that this isn't placebo because I physically feel the difference in my hands/wrists on top of performing better.

Does anyone else rig their stuff in a weird way for accessibility reasons?
