I'm having a little trouble figuring out if this comment was sarcastic or not. Regardless, I think it illustrates pretty clearly why a lot of us are really uninterested in the TouchBar.

I'm not sure why a particular entertainment application would explain disinterest in the feature.

On rough days, I turn on `nyan-mode` [1] in Emacs. I don't think the existence of nyan-mode should turn anybody off from Emacs.

Nyan Mode creator here. If someone borrows me a new Mac for development and testing, I'll happily make it work on the touch bar :).
It also illustrates pretty clearly why the TouchBar is going to take off - all sorts of silly little apps and games that keep people amused for hours.
