At our last 2 competitions, we saw teams using 3d printed parts screwed onto their controllers. Would this be used to change which fingers you can use to press various buttons? Example: pressing a 3d printed trigger connected to the X button would perform the function of the X button, without having to move your fingers into that position. Is this a serious enough advantage to take the time to print and add this part? If this is a useful addition, where can I find the CAD files?

This is exactly what the attachments are for. They are called “Scuff paddles”.
It depends on your use case; it’s up to you to decide that for yourself.
There are a few different variations out there. I believe the origin is this online challenge entry:
However, there have been multiple subsequent modifications/improvements, such as this one:

Scuff pedals need to be customise to the requirements of the drivers.
So even with the CAD files, you will still need to discuss with your drivers and then make modifications to the design.
