this could just as easily be a very minor redesign to improve analogue rubber abrasion or battery life or sth

Both of which desperately needs to happen.

They also could be ditching the giant light bars that eat battery life.

Actually Sony has already addressed the analogue stick rubber ripping already. They had a soft recall and replaced the softer rubber with a harder rubber back in the first year of release from what I remember. Reworked controllers have a less glossy look they are more dull of a finish and now hold up really well now. Have not ripped on me like first iteration did within a month. They will not be ditching the light on the controller since that works in conjunction with the camera and PSVR. They might add a feature where you could turn it off perhaps.
