I looked, this case uses a pcb with micro buttons

I have one of these though, will have to check what kinda switch it has

both power & reset tend to be momentary switches, not latching ones.

Right to repair is fundamental. You own it, you're allowed to fix it.

Power on pin on ATX PSU is pulled high internally in PSU's side when off. Motherboard pulls this low and held low ground as long as PC is on. Not signal. This is control pin. For this, this is safely done with a latching push button or toggle switch hooked to this and ground to power anything that is not ATX motherboard.

If it was me I'd maybe try the concealed approach, and indent a small latching rocker switch behind the front magnetic filter

I know, I meant what form factor the switch is.

It’s a micro button.

Are there any latching microbuttons?

If it is like 1 , then no
if it is like 2, then yes.
