Yep! We're committed to interoperability and compatibility for sure, and that includes implementing Touch Events. But, we don't see that as a blocker for moving the web forward with better models. Table layout was terrible.
For example, we've built better layout APIs (grid, flexbox, etc). Table layout still exists and is probably "here to stay". But we've nearly eradicated it from the modern web and moved the web into the future of responsive design. We can do this with input too.
