Maybe controversial but I just find holding my arm in the air (assuming the keyboard is attached) to be tiring for big sessions. With a mouse I could relax.

With an stylus you can touch while keeping your palm rested. An stylus also gives you added reach which reduces the distance you have to lift your arm.

If you need to touch the screen frequently during certain workflows, tilt the iPad at a low angle (so you look down on it) and if you're using a detachable keyboard you can keep it to the side.
