It is worse in my opinion - it is basically a death sentence for
PointerEvents - no one will bother to support them, when there is a widely
supported alternative in currently the only released browser that has them.
The only adoption they would see would be on hybrid devices with mouse,
touch or pen interaction, as there they are the only option for proper
input support.

My 2c.
