Okay so that's good, but why use an ambiguous term such as "Pointer assistance" when it's more widely known as "Mouse acceleration"? You have to drill down into the tooltip to even see the connection, and I think this is likely to lead to a lot of people not even knowing what that setting does. Like, I really think there's less value in using the term "Pointer assistance" over the term "Mouse acceleration", as anyone who actually wants to turn the setting off will be looking for "Mouse acceleration" and not "Pointer assistance".
