First of all, you neglected to explain the standardization situation

Where does this stand in the current Touch Events vs Pointer Events
situation, is the intent to re-use of those or create yet another
standard?
AFAIK, Blink does not intend [1] to implement Pointer Events. Should new web
features avoid extending Pointer Events?
Unclear. We should still push for pointer events if just possible.
Blink hasn't proposed anything better and their reasoning to drop pointer
events doesn't make sense.
But the situation is a bit tricky atm. TouchEvents API is worse than Pointer
Events and web devs seem to prefer
pointer events model, so do I, but if blink won't have pointer events...
