Touch sensors are independent devices from the displays they're glued to. But that said, Mutter should already have a good idea of which display it has associated the touch sensor with. So it should be smart enough to disable it in this case.

You just don't see where you tap on the screen with the internal one not showing anything, but maybe there are valid use cases.
