you need special drivers to assign the triggers to be able to be used in XI, as it is now you can assign one trigger but not both because they are on the same axis(something I think microsoft was very stupid for doing), if they were on separate axis you would be able to use both without special drivers or xinput support, however there is also the fact that if you don't have special directx drivers for the controller you also do not get feedback from the motors in the controller from any directx game that supports it, XI is one of the games that supports feedback on directx controllers, it might be a miner thing but that feedback adds a bit of feel to the game I really like having
