Zelda: Skyward Sword Joy-Con may have fixed Joy-Con drift

Update: It seems that the strips have apparently been present in Joy-Con after all, as noted by Spawn Wave. Hopes of an official fix for drift seem to have been dashed for now.
Also Nintendo seems to have been doing this for a little while now at least, my yellow Joycon from a couple years ago also has it pic.twitter.com/zmFSfU3gmn

Original: One issue Switch owners seem to encounter more than any other is Joy-Con drift. After extended use, some people notice that their controller recognizes input when the joystick isn’t actually being moved. It can cause some pretty obvious frustration since the Joy-Con essentially aren’t working as intended.
The situation has plagued Nintendo since Switch launched over four years ago. Multiple color variations of the Joy-Con have been released, but each one has come with the same Joy-Con drift problem. Now, however, some are thinking that things may have been addressed with the latest design.
