Helicopter Throttles Are Mapped to Collective Axis for All Helicopters

I think i know what @Bananimal6685 is talking about. In the early days of MSFS2020, when helicopters were not yet implemented, fixedwing controls were used for helicopters:
Cyclic was aileron and elevator
Throttle was collective.
Then as helicopters were “natively supported” by Asobo in MSFS2020 there were new controls available:
Cyclic
Collective
Helicopter Throttle
So the devs of each heli needed to either convert, or allow both sets to work properly.
So there may still be helicopters where the Collective binding and the Throttle binding (fixedwing) do the same thing.
