Gestures on the touch screen will only work when the touch screen is on
and active. The nice thing about a home button, in addition to the fact
that it's another anchor point to use for orientation, is that it's
another mechanical switch that will work even when the touch screen
isn't on and active. This gives you more options when the touch screen
isn't active to interact with your phone, such as waking it up from the
lock state, resetting the phone when there's a problem with the
interface or enabling a screen reader before you have feedback from the
screen.

I’ve never understood what the big deal is the phones not having a Home button.
Remember more and more devices lack Home buttons, thus instead of buttons, you
use gestures to simulate Home button functions.

It looks like Apple is done with the home button for good, the 3 new iphones
that Apple announced are based on the new iphone X form factor, the Iphone XS
replaces the Iphone X from last year, the Iphone XS max sounds like it's the
plus version with a larger screen, and the Iphone XR is the cheaper version.
The iphone 7 and 8 will remain as Apple's budget iphone models and the Iphone
SE has been discontinued. This means that Apple no longer sells any phones with
a small form factor now or that have a headphone jack. I got an iphone 8 and
iphone SE earlier this year so have no interest in getting any of these new
ones at this point, and I'm just not ready to give up the home button yet
either.
