piix4-uhci is still USB1 controller
the one we use is still the most compatible default, we do not test any other (other than set of USB2 and USB1 companions when using SPICE)
you’re welcome to overwrite it (not by changing the defaults which gets overwritten on upgrade, but rather extending it by your custom properties, ideally per OS type where you need that change)
You can use all the QEMU supported controllers, e.g. xhci if you want USB3
