Has anyone made a module to put a mouse dongle internal? (alien.top)

I like using a mouse with my laptop, but it always annoys me to have a USB-A dongle hanging off the side. I’d love a module that could enclose it inside. I think it could fit. Has anyone explored this?

Probably not your use case, but Bluetooth is way too high latency for games. Bluetooth vs 2.4Ghz dongles is a night and day difference in something like an fps.

Anyone who cares that much about gaming should be using a wire with a USB connector on the end opposite their rodent. 2.4Ghz vs 2.4Ghz is still 2.4Ghz RF.
