Because touchscreen on a laptop don't make sense because they

- Unbalance the weight of the laptop.

- Lead to finger print smudges all over the screen.

- Take your hands off the home row

- And tap areas need to be far bigger than mouse areas. You either get too tiny tap areas that make interfaces harder to use, or you get too large areas that are a waste for scrollpad/mouse users.
