FWIW we had some [discussions](https://github.com/w3c/pointerevents/issues/206) years ago in the PointerEvents WG about event models for non-screen-relative touchpads. Mostly we decided they were too different from PointerEvents (and not urgent enough) so never made progress on it. But the fact that these sorts of touchpads do not have pixel coordinates is (or any other sort of connection to the rendering surface), IMHO, a reasonable reason for the API to be completely separate from our input event APIs.
