USB doesn't have to be this slow. Some slowness is required, but not this much. (And USB3 doesn't have to be slower than PS2.)

What we get is a result of nobody on the entire stack giving a shit. It's not a technological limitation.

ps2 keyboard/mouse support is still there on modern x86; but you have to carefully shop for motherboards. And if you also want a ps2 mouse, you'll probably need a splitter, 2x ps2 ports on a single board seems to be no longer available.
