Screens are not for touching..." Hmmmm. By one estimate, there were more than 2.5 billion smartphones in use last year (and more today, of course), all with touchscreens. If each screen is used just for a few minutes a day, the total usage-years is in the hundreds of millions. Touchscreen-equipped devices, including phones and tablets, are among the most widely-used consumer electronic devices of all time. If there is some undiscovered flaw in the concept of a touchscreen, it hasn't shown up so far.
