I don't even read button prompts.
Most games have the same functions on the same positions. It's only weird when they do shit like make R2 the sprint button. Like, what the absolute fuck is that shit?
Except accept/cancel is sometimes switched.
As a PC gamer that doesn't often use a controller. I often have to enter menus twice. Once to just exit it, and another to accept whatever is the first entry.
Specially when emulating old Nintendo games, which don't say which button is which.
On nintendo and older PS games, or Japanese releases of PS games, the accept button is the one to the right.
Take Gameboy for example. The A button is to the right of B.
