Could someone explain what this is for? I have an XSX wireless controller. I use it over BT with my Linux machines and it works out of the box with all games and the desktop. What functionality does this add?

If you use the wireless adapter this is required. I mainly use Linux but sometimes boot into Windows. Hence it’s easier to use the adapter and have it paired with the singular thing, than to re-pair it with Linux/Windows each switch.

Ah. I just use BT so that makes sense
