Err, that's what we want to achieve.. I suppose you have some local udev rule
which attaches that property to the pedals, so that it works for you?

> capabilities/ev raw kernel attribute: 9

That means it's capable of sending ABS and SYN events, not that surprising.

> capabilities/abs raw kernel attribute: 23

== ABS_X, ABS_Y, ABS_RZ

I was hoping that the device would be capable of something distinct like
ABS_THROTTLE, ABS_RUDDER, ABS_WHEEL, ABS_GAS, or ABS_BRAKE. I'm afraid I don't
really know what ABS_RZ is supposed to mean, the official documentation
(https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/input/event-codes.txt) does not
mention it and googling for it doesn't help much either.

However, touch screens, touchpads, and accelerometers do *not* use all these
"fancy" axes, they really are quite unique to joysticks and similar game
controllers.
