In my experience (with Thinkpad X1 Carbon, which also had a capacitive touch strip for function keys), it doesn't actually work that way. Your muscle memory might involve hitting the key away from the center or at a slight angle, which registers properly on the usual keyboard, but is sufficiently ambiguous with touch that sometimes it does the wrong thing, or sometimes it does nothing at all.
If I use a normal keyboard, even on my 12" Macbook, I never need to look at the keyboard, but with the touch bar, I simply cannot press the esc key, i put my finger there, touch it, and sometimes nothing happens, its like it doesn't register that you press it, or maybe im touching it wrong.
Regardless I feel like I'm trying to re-learn to type.
I'm moving to a Dell XPS 15 tho. Done with Apple if this is the direction they are going.
What do you mean by "the direction they are going"? Are you implying that next Apple is going to replace the rest of the keyboard with touchbar-like keys? Because I highly doubt that's going to happen.
