A chip can literally just contain basic logic gates. Your aversion to them is based on pure Qanon fiction

My aversion to them is an aversion to unnecessary overhead. A cable is a cable, it shouldn't be a third device.

No, the chip is a microcontroller with firmware. You can try to do it in pure logic but it’s a waste of effort and development resources.
