What do you mean synchronous? User input is not synchronous.

Hence, the remaining cancellable pointer events are so by nature of their corresponding mouse events being cancellable.  The specific default action & steps for those mouse events is out of scope for this group. But I think this is solved by modifying steps 4 & 5 in section 11.1 and steps 5 &6 in section 11.2 to set the cancelled flag of the mouse event being fired to true.

If you declare fundamental bits out of scope, how do you expect
interoperable implementations?

Usually when a reviewer points out a problem, it's up to the editor to
be grateful (optional, I suppose, but it helps in getting more
reviews) and fix it.
