I see simple scenarios:

PS5 console in a family.
Gamer 1 plays multiplayer with gamer 2
Gamer 2 leaves and just puts the controller down
Gamer 1 starts playing a solo game unaware controller 2 is wirelessly still connected to the console
Gamer 1 herits from stick drift from controller 2

Seems like a fairly reasonable thing to happen when it comes to console use.

6. Gamer 1 notices something weird and then sees that the second controller is still on and disconnects it. That is the easy fix.

Plus in any case like this will only happen if you enabled this sharing controller thing just before. Most of the time you will not be playing with it enabled.
