The `document.createTouch` and `document.createTouchList` APIs are not supported in browsers (anymore?).
The other two bullet points is the complete list of features in Chromium that depend on the "legacy touch events" concept (`RuntimeEnabledFeatures::TouchEventFeatureDetectionEnabled` in Chromium), as far as I can tell. The list of event handlers is: `ontouchcancel`, `ontouchend`, `ontouchmove`, `ontouchstart`.
