[NTLK] Stylus? Nobody'd ever want a stylus!

I'm paraphrasing Steve Jobs' Newton comments, of course.

Now, enough time has passed for Apple executives to describe pencil input
on tablets as 'natural.'

https://wccftech.com/apple-execs-on-calculator-app-and-math-notes/

"It combines the natural input of pencil with the amazing on-device machine
learning models that [Jenny Chen, Apple’s engineering manager for input
experiences] and her teams work on and the power of Apple Silicon. So you
just write math like on a piece of paper and like magic, it just gives you
the answer."

It's like that ol' standard about how, if you wait long enough, all fashion
will eventually come back into style again.
