Touch button area also serves as a holding point (e.g. for a pinky finger or a thumb base) that doesn’t touch the screen. When I bought my SE, my buddy bought 13 mini, which had full-surface touch. Our every telegram discussion ended in him “recording audio” because you cannot exit an app without touching screen at bottom-right with the meaty base of your thumb. I was happy I went SE. I also bought a non-frameless tablet for my grandma for the same reason, because people have to firmly hold devices without touching the screen somehow. Her previous tablet had thin frames and every time she wanted to show something to me, it “oh, flew away again”, because she touched the screen. Modern design is done by people who value only form without even thinking of function. This is pure idiocy, literally as in idiocracy movie. Same for this new SE which is just an iphone now, cause they can’t help but idiot it.
