Is it really? Including the batteries?

And we're still ignoring the fact that many days you'll get barely any direct sunlight during those 6 hours of "daylight"

I would guess getting access to drugs is the main (and for some the only) reason.

> Never understood this comment, if you use keyboards instead for shortcuts the trackpad is hardly something you care about. this seems like a comment from Apple users who justify the trackpad

Or as shockingly as it seems other people might have preferences which are different to yours and which are not somehow inherent inferior to yours.

> else, even though the rest of the world has no problem not using Apple trackpads.

If you go few years back same could've been said about appalling battery life, poor screen and build quality and a dozen other things. I had not problem using computers back then because I didn't know it could be better so just had to deal with it. Going back to something objectively inferior is not that easy (e.g. I almost always used an external mouse until the first retina MBP, I haven't really felt the need to since then except occasionally for gaming).

> will just ignore my scroll wheel input sometimes.

The other day I was trying to set the scroll speed (and have it consistent for all apps) on KDE and it was quite a struggle. AFAIK it just works on Gnome/Wayland but having to chose between something as basic as this and using a DE the UX of which I personally find slightly repulsive (at least in default config) doesn't seem ideal.
