Could you build this?
No It relies on low-level reverse engineering of Logitech's proprietary HID++ protocol, writing raw USB/Bluetooth/HID driver communications in Rust, and manipulating hardware sensor registers directly.
What it would actually take: The application must be written in Rust or C using OS-level HID APIs (IOKit on macOS, hidraw/evdev on Linux, WinUSB/SetupAPI on Windows) to communicate directly with Logitech receivers and hardware. The primary barrier is implementing and debugging undocumented or semi-documented HID++ 1.0/2.0/4.x protocol features (0x2111 SmartShift, 0x2201 DPI, 0x2150 thumbwheel, 0x1004 unified battery) across wired, Bluetooth, Bolt, and Unifying protocols. It requires deep embedded protocol engineering, hardware packet analysis via Wireshark/USBPcap, and OS driver knowledge.
