There is no reason to prevent you from doing that and you don't have to use those functions.
We're about to do the same thing. Our team has been writing code to read the ports directly rather than using the functions. Currently they are creating a bunch of "#defines" that give mnemonic names to the ports where the custom controls ane connected. By doing that, they can easily be changed later if the OI is wired differently than originally planned.
It you decide to use the functions, that's ok too. There is no requirement that "trigger1" is actually connected to a joystick. It can be a separate switch.
