A similar thing was said about keyboard and mouse compared to dual analog.

And those things were true.

Games and people adapted.

Personally, I feel something work that can pick up nerve impulses as well as deliver modest feedback, tactile and or electrical will close much of this gap.

New input paradigms will advance too, just as they currently are for touch.

Touch today is getting good. The finger in the way problem is being chipped away.

Even if touch and motion controls improve, what evidence is there that they present a better paradigm for interaction than a keyboard or controller?

None. The question really is when does input get transparent enough to not be a bother. Whether it beats other forms and technologies is a different question. One that doesn't necessarily require an answer.
