Description
ExpressLRS is a heavy user of Platformio. We got a suggestion to upstream platformio udev rules to the systemd repository. Please see the quote below. I think Platformio organization is a more appropriate actor for this action.
Hey as far as I understood the right thing to do with those udev rules would be to upstream them. So they wouldn't be needed here anymore.
The correct way to do that seems to be to add the devices to this systemd/systemd@main/hwdb.d
I'm not sure if it fits in one of those files. Otherwise you would need to add a new one, here's an example PR how to do that. systemd/systemd#22730
Also, tagging @razzeee.

Research direction
Locate the existing PlatformIO udev rules, then compare their devices with the systemd/systemd hwdb.d directory mentioned in the issue. Read the example systemd/systemd#22730 pull request to understand the upstreaming process; done means the rules are accepted upstream or the PlatformIO copy is no longer needed.
