Am I doing something different than most? Admittedly, I don't use a 4k monitor. I would think you'd need to boost acceleration or scroll multiple times to get across the screen no matter the input. This also seems like an argument for the larger touchpads the author is complaining about.
resizing: I guess I'm not sure of the use case. In something like Maps, you just do the shrink/grow gesture multiple times. In photo apps I use a selection box, scale the window down and drag the corners are precise as I need. Maybe it's something I don't often do.
selecting: click and hold with my thumb, scroll down with index and middle finger or move cursor with my pointer. Or I click, scroll, then shift-click to select what I need.
drag and drop: click and hold with my thumb, drag the item by moving my index finger. You can left and drop your index finger as needed. Release thumb to drop.
