Yes, the scales can feed back to the controller, at least thats what the makers say.
CSMIO-IP-S on lathe, from cslabs.

Somewhat expensive, very good, very good value for money.
Even if I only got dros from the scales, it would be good enough for my use via sw macros.

I am aiming for extreme resolution, repeatability, and fairly well willing to spend money.
