Except that the trackpad has to be used to get the cursor all the way over to the control --- it's often faster to just reach out and touch, and if using a stylus, then the cursor goes right back to where the other hand was working as soon as one lowers it back into hover range.

I can move my cursor across my entire screen without lifting my wrist with the trackpad. It is vastly easier than tapping at a screen.

And requires a LOT less effort too. There simply is no real benefit to a touchscreen on a laptop. It’s ridiculous. It’s the phablet of laptops. Insane.

I find it lends a lot to the flexibility of the device --- but I'm using a touchscreen on a convertible which I can flatten out into a tablet w/ keyboard to one side or the other, or fully reverse into an expansive tablet.

Flexibility in what way?
