We all agree there is a compat risk here (FYI, see the [Chrome bug](https://issues.chromium.org/40851596)). Let me clarify why I am hesitant to change the spec-ed behavior now: we in PEWG have discussed click targets for captured pointers for several years (starting with #75 on 2016, then forked the discussion to #356 to focus more). We even talked about risks w/o known evidence. The spec text we are discussing here was updated only after [this conclusion](https://github.com/w3c/pointerevents/issues/356#issuecomment-1596196064) from @smaug----, and note that the post has received support emojis a developer too. For sake of making progress here and avoiding the old spec discussion again without supporting data, I will close this issue and stick to the conclusion (https://github.com/w3c/pointerevents/issues/508#issuecomment-2258736459) that exposing the change seems to be the only way to know about possible compat problems. -- GitHub Notification of comment by mustaqahmed Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/pointerevents/issues/508#issuecomment-2305168936 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
