Povilas from the linked blog here. In open source often no one really cares about a suggested feature or even a submitted pull requests. It means additional work for the project maintainers - discussing design, reviewing code and handling of eventual bug fixes. Often the person who made a PR disappears leaving all future bugs the problem of the maintainer. So naturally project maintainers are risk averse and often say no to new features. Things end up not being implemented, not because it's technically difficult, or there's nobody willing to do the work, but because the incentives don't align. The above opinion applies to open source in general as I've witnessed during the past decade. I'm not describing any projects that are related touchpad or input that I've been interacting with lately.
