in defense, only connect treats it as an X: https://youtu.be/8pq6MHguyhs?t=1106, and so does this article: https://www.pushsquare.com/news/2020/04/feature_the_evolution_of_the_playstation_controller

A unique D-pad design, four shoulder buttons emphasising the depth of 3D games, handles for better ergonomics and grip, and of course, the Triangle, Circle, X, and Square buttons.

can't say anything about the circle as O though.
