Title explains the issue; I am wondering if it has to do with the [JoyNames] section in my .ini which seems... busy ?

Yes, looks like your GUIDs have changed at some point. You can remove the following entries:

B=Saitek Pro Flight Throttle Quadrant
B.GUID={06F7CA90-8FD5-11EA-8006-444553540000}
C=Saitek Pro Flight Throttle Quadrant
C.GUID={06F8B4F0-8FD5-11EA-800D-444553540000}
K=VKBsim Gladiator
K.GUID={2C19B160-9031-11EA-8001-444553540000}
L=CH PRO PEDALS USB
L.GUID={2C19B160-9031-11EA-8001-444553540000}
M=Saitek X52 Flight Controller
M.GUID={06F8DC00-8FD5-11EA-800E-444553540000}
N=Controller (Xbox One For Windows)
N.GUID={2C19B160-9031-11EA-8001-444553540000}

You will also need to check for references for those devices in your profile files and update. Change the following joy letter references (in the [axis] and [buttons] sections:
    B -> G (or H(
    C -> H (or G)
    K -> E
    L -> J
    M -> D
    P -> G or G (?)

Alternatively, if most of your assignments are to the initial letters, you can change your [JoyNames] section to the following:

[JoyNames]
AutoAssignLetters=Yes
0=Controller (Xbox One For Windows)
0.GUID={06F7A380-8FD5-11EA-8005-444553540000}
1=Flight Throttle Quadrant
1.GUID={06F7CA90-8FD5-11EA-8006-444553540000}
2=CH PRO PEDALS USB
2.GUID={06F8DC00-8FD5-11EA-800E-444553540000}
3=Flight Throttle Quadrant
3.GUID={06F8B4F0-8FD5-11EA-800D-444553540000}
4=Saitek X52 Flight Controller
4.GUID={06F8DC00-8FD5-11EA-800F-444553540000}
5=Alpha Flight Controls
5.GUID={2C19B160-9031-11EA-8001-444553540000}

A=Controller (Xbox One For Windows)
A.GUID={06F7A380-8FD5-11EA-8005-444553540000}
B=Flight Throttle Quadrant
B.GUID={06F7CA90-8FD5-11EA-8006-444553540000}

J=CH PRO PEDALS USB
