FWIW I think the T14 is an exceptionally badly made thinkpad. It was one of their first AMD thinkpads, and it was positioned firmly as a 'budget' machine. I really think it was rushed to market to take advantage of those mobile ryzens.
I bought a couple of them for some of my team (for the better graphics in Linux). The controller firmware it came with scanned rows and columns of the keyboard matrix at completely different frequencies, which created this weird interference pattern where it would randomly swallow keypresses if you pressed them at just the right time. It sucked, it made the laptop keyboard unusable.
They did fix it eventually though, and I guess updating your controller firmware might help your trackpad issues. I'm a trackpoint fanboy so I don't know for sure. FWIW I'm a big fan of both the X1C line and the X1E/P1. My primary laptop for last 3-4 years had been a p1 gen
2, before I went all in on the x2100.
