It wasn't a special feature they added for Portable Ops especially or anything, the Vita just allowed for right stick and front and rear touchscreens to be mapped to function as several different buttons when playing PSP games. It happened to work especially well for PO given the face buttons being the camera controls.
Did you play PO long after it released? I feel like people who played it at launch managed to make peace with the somewhat jank button combo out of sheer amazement at a "real" MGS experience being on a handheld. Feel like the same thing happened with Metroid Prime: Hunters which was, objectively, quite hard to play as efficiently as the GC titles-but people managed quite spectacularly all the same
