Incorrect - though I'm sympathetic. The ideal touchpad is a click-less touchpad with physical left / right buttons on the bottom left and right of the touchpad. No need for a physical hinge that requires the full weight of your arm to click, like an old Macbook. No need to push down on the touchpad at all and go to the expense of getting haptic feedback either. Just provide buttons!
(I do agree though, that so long as manufacturers are not going to provide physical buttons, haptic feedback would be a significant improvement.)
