I really do miss force touch.
I long felt like once all iPhones (that supported the most recent iOS) had the feature than they could really take it and run with it in iOS. But this never happened.
But the usability improvements of it were great. In music ALL the time I would hold down on a song to pull up the menu, keep my finger down and scroll down to add to next, and lift up to select it. One swipe and I did what I wanted. I could do that quicker than it takes it to register that I am holding down in the first place now. It worked the same was as anything on the Menu on a Mac (holding down and releasing doing the command) and it just felt super intuitive.
I won't deny that it had a discoverability issue, but that feels like the wrong reason to remove the technology.
I am glad this technology still exists on the watch, which has an OS that was always designed with this in mind. So I think it works well there.
I long hope this comes back. But I have to imagine there is a reason this never came to the iPad so maybe that was a major contributor to it being cut.
