I was an adult when touch screens properly took off, and I doubt this is in the same league.

There was some practical purpose to touch screens, whereas this thing is just unnecessary. I doubt it would have the same effect.

There is practical purpose to a touchscreen, the fact that short sighted people couldn't see its usefulness is my actual point.
