RE: CFC - Target Size (2 options)

-1 to the first option
0 to the second.

I could live with the second option, and on Steve’s point:

> The first question is simply why would a person with a disability have more success hitting a target of 26x26 with 8 spacing (pass) than hitting a 43x43 target with 7 spacing (fail)?

If you had a list of links which were plenty wide enough, but 28px high with 8px spacing, you have 36px between the middle of each target.

Touch devices have algorithms that help you select things, so spacing acts as a increase in the size of the touch target.

Having said that, I don’t think we’ve bottomed out the effects there, or come up with defendable values yet, or worked out if that really helps the author achieve certain interfaces, which is why I can’t +1 it.
