I really wish Google would allow people to switch the back button to the right. I know they are pushing for gesture controls by default, but I like the screen buttons and I've always used a Samsung phone, which has the back button on the right.

Shouldn't they want to make it so people want to switch to Pixel phones?

If Asus phones, One Plus, and Samsung give the option to switch the back button to the right no problem, why is Google so stubborn about having the option in stock android. They even went out of their way to patch out an adb workaround.
