The charging port location is horrible but, that’s about the only problem unique to it.

In horizontal workflows like video or audio editing it’s much faster swipe left/right, it becomes natural like a track pad. After working like that a scroll wheel doesn’t cut it anymore.

An even better arrangement is a Magic Trackpad on the left (or non-primary) hand for scrolling and gestures, combined with any comfortable vanilla (almost certainly non-Apple) mouse on your primary hand for pointing/clicking/dragging.

Surprisingly, as a right-handed person, I found I gained ambidextrous ability to use a trackpad with either hand very quickly.
