The PlayStation one is the symbol, not the letter, so that one is a bit different.

Yup, functionally the cross is more like an A, and the PlayStation layout is effectively the same as the Xbox one in actual practice.

Which is incorrect in the first place. Circle was supposed to be the accept/enter button originally.

I never understood why Sony felt the need to flip confirm/cancel in markets outside Japan.

Yeah, the original system had logic to it. The square also symbolized menus, and triangle was tertiary.
