Use the Picade X HAT JST connector to connect the Plasma kit buttons

Hello dear buccaneers, I have a Picade 10" and a Plasma Kit. On the Picade x HAT the Plasma kit is connected using Dupont connectors connected to BTN7, BTN8, 5V and GND. I don’t understand why it doesn’t use the provided JST connector on which it’s written Plasma. Is there anyone would could explain me why?

My question is related to another one. I would like to use the BTN7 and BTN8 to plug a rotary button to manage the sound level. Currently I do it using triggerhappy and a combination of joystick and button. It works fine but it’s not really efficient. But for this purpose I should plug the Plasma Kit to the JST connector. Is this possible? And how to deal with the driver?

For information, I have a Pi 5 with NVEM used on the Picade and it’s just great!
