Do you use gestures at all? I have both a MacBook Pro (for work) and a Logitech K400+. Two-finger scrolling on the MBP is fine; light pressure on the touchpad is enough to scroll very smoothly. Two-finger scrolling on my X230 is also fine, if a bit jumpy - I can at least keep my place while I'm scrolling, and it still takes only light pressure to recognize the gesture.
Two-finger scrolling on the K400+ is painful. (Actually physically painful; I have RSI in my right arm and poorly-tracking touchpads can be a trigger.) It requires fairly heavy pressure on the touchpad to trigger gestures consistently (though they can be triggered inconsistently with light pressure which is also frustrating). And especially on macOS, it's difficult to actually scroll a consistent distance with a two-finger gesture with the K400+.
I'm fairly certain this has to do with the K400+'s touchpad not being recognized as a touchpad by the OS. The device is instead emitting mouse wheel events in firmware when a two-finger scroll gesture is detected. macOS will then, of course, apply mouse wheel acceleration, which makes sense for some mice but absolutely does not make sense for a touchpad.
