With all the exceptions and push back on the touch target size, this concern will not be addressed.

+1 to the CfC. Mark Hakkinen and I have discussed this, noting the relationship with the issue of target size. People with dexterity difficulties are more likely to move outside the target before successfully invoking the up event. We need to be sure that such cases are addressed appropriately, whether in the combination of success criteria integrated into WCAG 2.1 or at the user agent level.
