The plural form, "controllers", should be used instead, because it sounds more natural. I wrote it that way in my earlier response. [1]

The singular controller does make sense in this context, but in the user facing print that goes on console, the plural controllers is easier to understand. So, yes, please do a V3 with 'controllers'.
