The theory in this case is just that, theory. Since libusbx
replicates what HIDAPI (and libusb-win32) does, and then adds
onto that, libusbx is indeed higher level than HIDAPI.

That is confusing. HIDAPI doesn't depend on libusb.

HIDAPI can optionally use libusb, but that's only useful on old
Linux systems where the OS-native HID API was insufficient.
